Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 4 cod fillets (about 1 lb)
- 2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes until softened and fragrant.
- Season the cod fillets with salt, pepper, and dried thyme. Place the fillets in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until cooked through and flaky. Remove the fillets and set aside.
- In the same skillet, pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
- Add the cooked potatoes back into the skillet and stir to coat in the creamy sauce. Return the cod fillets to the skillet on top of the potatoes and simmer for another 2-3 minutes to heat everything through.
- Garnish with fresh parsley (if desired) and serve immediately.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, you can substitute half-and-half for the heavy cream.
- If you prefer a different fish, tilapia or haddock would work well in this recipe.
- Feel free to add other vegetables, such as spinach or peas, to the skillet for extra nutrition and color.
