Pan-Seared Cod
Directions
- 1Pat the cod dry with paper towels.
- 2Season both sides of the cod with kosher salt and black pepper.
- 3Add enough oil to coat the bottom of a pan over medium to high heat.
- 4Place the cod in the hot oil, service side down, away from you to avoid oil splashes.
- 5Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the fish starts to sizzle. If it begins to smoke, reduce the heat.
- 6Once a crust forms, turn off the heat and flip the fish.
- 7Let the fish rest in the pan for about 2 minutes.
