Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/4 pounds boneless and skinless cod fillets (4 fillets (each about 5 ounces))
1/2 teaspoon salt (divided)
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper (divided)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 large garlic clove (minced)
1/2 cup heavy cream (whipping cream)
1/3 cup low sodium vegetable broth (or chicken broth or seafood broth)
1.5 tablespoons chopped fresh dill (or 1 to 1.5 teaspoons dried dill or dill weed)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon zest
Lemon wedges (for serving (optional))

Steps:

  • Pat cod fillets dry of excess moisture with paper towels and season with 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and black pepper.
  • Heat olive oil and butter in a 12-inch non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
  • Place cod fillets in the pan. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes on one side.
  • Carefully flip the cod fillets to the other side and continue to cook for another 3 to 5 minutes or until cod is cooked through, is opaque and flakes easily with a fork (insert the tines of a fork into the thickest part of the fish at an angle and twist gently; it should flake easily). Time may vary, depending on the thickness of your fillets.Note: Be gentle flipping, especially if using super fresh fish, as the fillets are quite delicate.
  • Once fillets are done, carefully remove with a spatula, transfer to a plate and set aside.
  • Add garlic to the pan and cook, stirring often, for 1 minute.
  • Pour in heavy cream, broth and remaining 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and black pepper.
  • Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring, for 4 to 5 minutes or until the sauce has reduced/thickened and coats the back of a spoon when you draw your finger through it. Taste for seasoning and add more, if necessary, to taste.
  • Once sauce has thickened to your liking, stir in dill, lemon juice and lemon zest.
  • Pour sauce over fish and serve with lemon wedges (if desired). Enjoy!

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 salmon fillets (, skinless (~180g/6oz each) (Note 1))
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp salt
1 tbsp olive oil
15g / 1 tbsp butter (, unsalted)
2 garlic cloves (, finely minced)
1/2 cup dry white wine ((or more chicken stock) (Note 2))
1/2 cup chicken or vegetable stock/broth (, low sodium)
1 cup cream (, heavy/thickened )
1/2 cup parmesan (, finely grated (grate your own, Note 3))
2 tsp tarragon leaves* (, finely chopped)
2 tsp chervil* (, finely chopped)
2 tsp parsley* (, finely chopped, plus more for garnish)

Steps:

  • Season: Pat salmon dry, then sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Pan-sear: Heat oil in a large non stick skillet over medium high heat. Add salmon, presentation side down, and cook for 3 minutes until golden brown.
  • Flip: Turn salmon and cook the other side for another 2 minutes, until the internal temperature registers 49°C / 120°F (for medium-rare, recommended) or until cooked to your taste (Note 5).
  • Butter baste: When it's almost cooked, add the butter. Melt, then spoon over the salmon a few times.
  • Rest: Remove salmon onto plate, and cover loosely with foil to keep warm.
  • Sauté garlic: Add garlic and stir for 20 seconds or until light golden.
  • Reduce wine: Add white wine, turn up heat to high. Bring to simmer while stirring base of the pan to dissolve all the golden bits into the sauce. Cook 1 minute or until it most evaporates and the wine-y smell is gone.
  • Thicken cream & stock: Add cream and chicken stock, then simmer on medium heat for 2 - 3 minutes until reduced and slightly thickened.
  • Add parmesan & herbs: Stir through parmesan (this will thicken sauce more), then the herbs. Taste sauce and see if more salt and pepper is needed.
  • Serve: Serve salmon with Creamy Sauce, ensuring there's something on the plate to soak up all that amazing sauce! Mashed Potato rates highly. See above video for list of suggestions (including side salads).
