Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 lb Cod fillet pieces, 4-6 pieces
- 5 garlic cloves, peeled and minced
- ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley leaves
For the Lemon Mixture:
- 5 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 5 tbsp Pinehurst Olive Oil Lemon Infused Olive Oil
- 2 tbsp melted butter
For the Coating:
- ⅓ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- ¾ tsp sweet Spanish paprika
- ¾ tsp ground cumin
- ¾ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Mix lemon juice, olive oil, and melted butter in a shallow bowl. Set aside
- In another shallow bowl, mix all-purpose flour, spices, salt and pepper. Set next to the lemon juice mixture.
- Pat fish fillet dry. *this is very important so that the flour mixture sticks to the fix while searing* Dip fish in the lemon juice mixture then dip in the flour mixture. Shake off excess flour. Reserve the lemon juice mixture for later.
- Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat (watch the oil to be sure it is shimmering but not smoking). Add fish and sear on each side to give it some color, but do not fully cook (about a couple minutes on each side) Remove from heat.
- To the remaining lemon juice mixture, add the minced garlic and mix. Drizzle all over the fish fillets.
- Bake in the heated oven for until it begins to flake easily with a fork (10 minutes should do it, but begin checking earlier). Remove from heat and sprinkle chopped parsley.
- Serve immediately.
