Garlic Butter Baked Cod

• •
  4 tbsp Butter
• •
  2 tbsp Olive oil

  Regular (not extra-virgin) olive oil for high-heat cooking. EVOO for dressings.

• •
  4 Garlic(12g)
• •
  0.3 tsp 1/4 tsp paprika ($0.02)
• •
  0.3 tsp 1/4 tsp salt ($0.02)
• •
  2 tbsp Parsley, Fresh
• •
  1 lbs Cod, Fillet
• •
  1 Lemon(108g)

Instructions

1. 1Mince the fresh garlic and finely chop the fresh parsley; set aside.
2. 2In a small bowl, combine the salted butter, olive oil, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and paprika—stir until it forms a fairly smooth paste.
3. 3Pat the cod fillets dry with paper towels and place them in a large skillet. Spread the garlic butter mixture evenly over the top of each fillet.
4. 4Cut half of the lemon into thin slices and arrange them over the cod; cut the remaining lemon half into wedges and set aside for serving.
5. 5Cover the skillet and cook over medium heat for 12–15 minutes, until the fish flakes easily with a fork and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (timing depends on fillet thickness).
6. 6While still hot, divide the cod, lemon slices, and pan juices evenly into 4 airtight containers.
7. 7Store the lemon wedges separately in a small container; include them with each serving for squeezing over the cod before eating.
