Instructions
Combine the ingredients for the seasoning in a
small bowl.
Cut cod into smaller pieces, if desired. Season all sides of the cod with the seasoning.
Heat 2 Tbsp butter in a
large skillet
over medium-high heat. Once butter melts, add cod to skillet. Cook 2 minutes.
Turn the heat down to medium. Gently flip the cod. Top with remaining butter and cook another 3-4 minutes.
Butter will completely melt and the fish will cook. (Don’t overcook the cod, it will become mushy and completely fall apart.)
Drizzle cod with fresh lemon juice and herbs. Serve immediately.
Enjoy, friends.
