Main Ingredients
  • 4 fillets cod fillets (6 ounces each)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes (chopped)
  • 3 cups baby spinach
  • 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Gather all your ingredients, ensuring everything is fresh and of high quality for the best results. Chop the sun-dried tomatoes and mince the garlic beforehand to streamline the process.
  2. Pat the cod fillets dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Cooking
  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant (don’t burn it!).
  2. Gently add seasoned cod fillets to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, watching for a nice golden crust.
  3. Once cooked, remove the cod and set it aside.
  4. In the same skillet, pour in chicken broth and heavy cream. Scrape up any flavorful bits stuck to the bottom.
  5. Stir in grated Parmesan cheese until it melts into a creamy sauce.
  6. Add chopped sun-dried tomatoes and wilt in the baby spinach.
  7. Sprinkle in Italian seasoning, then return the cod to the skillet, spooning sauce over the fillets.
Serving
  1. Let it simmer for a few moments to blend those flavors together. Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

Serve over cauliflower rice or zucchini noodles for a stunning contrast. Add fresh herbs and a squeeze of lemon to enhance flavor.
