Lemon Zaatar Cod Recipe

Chad Dorsey

Report

My cod recipe combines lemon and zaatar to make crusted, pan fried fish in under 15 minutes. Flavorful, flaky, and so easy to make.

Instructions

Wash and pat fry the cod filets. Pat dry with paper towel and season with some salt. Set aside.
In a small dish mix together the zaatar and olive oil. Zest the lemon and add to the mix and the juice from half the lemon. Stir and using a brush, coat each side of the filets and let rest 15 minutes.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 2-3 tablespoons olive oil. Fry the cod filets for 6-7 minutes on one side, carefully turn over and cook another 2-3 minutes, depending on thickness. There should be a golden brown zaatar crust on the fish.
Serve with remaining lemon half squeezed over cod and a salad of choice.
