recipe

  • Step 2
    In another pot of salted, boiling water, cook the green beans for 3-4 min. Drain & set aside.
  • Step 3
    Meanwhile, heat a few dabs of butter in a frying pan over low heat. Zest & juice the lemon into the pan. Add minced for grated garlic, then season with salt, pepper & mix. For an added kick, sprinkle in some chili flakes! Cook, stirring over low heat for about 2 min.

    In the same pan, add the cod & cook for 2-3 min on each side. Spoon the pan sauce over top as it cooks.
  • Step 5
    On a plate, arrange the cod with the rice & green beans. Drizzle lemon butter on top & garnish with parsley (optional). Serve & enjoy!

Recipe tip

Did you know that thawing cod in whole milk overnight could help remove the "fishiness" from frozen fillets?! We love this hack!
