Instructions

  1. Using a paper towel pat the cod fillets dry. Then add 1 teaspoon of grape seed oil to the fish and season the non-skin side with blackening seasoning.
  2. Heat a frying pan to medium heat. Add the remaining grapeseed oil to the pan. Place the seasoned cod fillets in a frying pan and fry for 4 minutes with the lid on. Remove the lid then flip the fillets and fry for an additional 3-4 more minutes (without the lid) or until internal temperature reaches 140 degrees Fahrenheit.
  3. Carefully, remove off the heat, divide among plates, and enjoy.

Notes

  • Seasonings - I love blackening seasoning for fish. However, you can also use my house blend seasoning, cajun seasoning, or even fajita seasoning (for tacos).
  • Oil - If you don't have grapeseed oil on hand you can use another oil that has a high smoke point like avocado oil, canola oil, corn oil, and peanut oil.
  • Thawing Frozen Fish - If you forgot to place the frozen Cod in the refrigerator the night before you want to serve it you can quickly thaw it using only cold tap water. Keep the cod in the original packaging to prevent it from getting water logged. By using cold water this will minimize the risk of bacterial growth. You also want to use it immediately after thawing.
  • Baking Instructions - Don't want to pan fry? No worries. You can follow the first step then place on a greased glass baking dish and bake at 425 degrees for 10-12 minutes or until internal temperature reaches at least 140 degrees Fahrenheit and fish is flaking.
