Caregory : Dinner Ideas

This crispy cod recipe shows you how to make golden fish that's not deep-fried, to put a healthy twist on a classic. Pat it dry and dredge it with a bit of flour before sautéing in a hot pan.

Ingredient

    • 3 tablespoons minced fresh herbs, such as chives, mint, basil and/or dill

    • 2 tablespoons buttermilk

    • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise

    • Pinch of salt plus 1/2 teaspoon, divided

    • ½ teaspoon ground pepper, divided

    • 1 ¼ pounds cod, cut into 4 pieces

    • 2 tablespoons white whole-wheat flour

    • 2 tablespoons grapeseed oil, divided

    • 1 pound snow peas, trimmed

Direction

    1. Whisk herbs, buttermilk, mayonnaise, pinch of salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.

    2. Pat fish dry with paper towels and sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Toss with flour in a medium bowl.

    3. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the fish and cook, turning occasionally, until lightly browned on all sides and cooked through, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate.

    4. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and snow peas to the pan. Cook until lightly charred on one side, about 1 minute. Stir and continue cooking until bright green and tender, about 1 minute more.

    5. Serve the fish and snow peas with the reserved sauce.
