Description
A delicious and creamy dish featuring cod fillets cooked in a rosemary-infused cream sauce, served alongside garlic mashed potatoes.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 (6-ounce) cod fillets
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried rosemary)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 pound potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 cup milk
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the cubed potatoes and cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Season the cod fillets with salt and pepper, then add them to the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the heavy cream, add rosemary, and lemon juice. Stir and let it simmer for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened.
- While the sauce simmers, mash the cooked potatoes with butter and milk until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Place the cod fillets back into the skillet with the cream sauce, spooning the sauce over the fish. Let it cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.
- Serve the cod on a plate with a generous scoop of garlic mashed potatoes and drizzle with the creamy rosemary sauce.
Notes
- For a lighter version, substitute half of the heavy cream with low-fat milk or a non-dairy alternative.
- Add steamed vegetables like green beans or broccoli on the side for extra color and nutrition.
