Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1.5 lbs cod fillets
- 1.5 lbs small gold or Yukon potatoes
Supporting Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 4 garlic cloves
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 0.75 cup chicken or vegetable broth
Herbs and Seasonings:
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary
- Salt
- Black pepper
- Fresh parsley
Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 ½ pounds halved potatoes, seasoning with salt and pepper. Sauté for 5-6 minutes until edges turn golden brown.
- Incorporate 4 minced garlic cloves and 1 tablespoon chopped rosemary. Cook 1-2 minutes until your kitchen fills with aromatic herbs, stirring to prevent garlic from burning.
- Pour ¾ cup broth into the skillet. Allow mixture to simmer, then reduce heat and cover. Steam potatoes for 10-12 minutes until they become tender.
- Remove lid and pour 1 cup heavy cream into the skillet. Let sauce bubble gently for 5-7 minutes, watching it thicken and coat your potatoes beautifully.
- Carefully place 1 ½ pounds cod fillets atop the potatoes. Sprinkle with additional salt and pepper. Cover and cook for 5-8 minutes until fish turns completely opaque and breaks apart easily with a fork.
- Garnish with fresh chopped parsley. Serve immediately alongside crusty bread or a crisp salad to complete your comforting seafood meal.
Notes
- Choose fresh, thick cod fillets for the best texture and flavor.
- Use a heavy-bottomed skillet to ensure even cooking and prevent burning.
- When sautéing potatoes, resist the urge to stir constantly, allowing them to develop a golden crust.
- For a lighter version, substitute half-and-half for heavy cream and use less butter.
