Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cod fillets (150–180g each)
  • 500g baby potatoes or Yukon Gold potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 ½ cups heavy cream
  • ½ cup chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 3 garlic cloves, finely minced
  • 1 small shallot or onion, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped (or ½ tsp dried rosemary)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • Fresh parsley or chives for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the potatoes by washing and cutting them into halves or quarters. Boil in salted water until fork-tender (8–10 minutes), then drain and set aside.
  2. Season cod fillets with salt, pepper, lemon juice, and zest. Allow to marinate briefly.
  3. In a large skillet, heat olive oil and butter over medium-high heat. Sear the cod fillets for 3–4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove from pan.
  4. In the same skillet, sauté minced garlic and shallots until fragrant (2–3 minutes). Add fresh rosemary, then pour in broth and simmer gently.
  5. Stir in heavy cream and let thicken (6–8 minutes). Add boiled potatoes to the sauce, cooking together for 3–4 minutes.
  6. Return seared cod to the skillet, spooning sauce over it and simmering for another couple of minutes before serving.
