Ingredients
Scale
- 4 skinless, boneless cod fillets (150–180g each)
- 500g baby or Yukon Gold potatoes, halved or quartered
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 3 minced garlic cloves
- 1 finely chopped shallot or onion
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary (or ½ tsp dried)
- 1½ cups heavy cream
- ½ cup halal-certified chicken or vegetable broth
Instructions
- Boil halved potatoes in salted water for 8–10 minutes until tender. Drain and set aside.
- Season cod fillets with salt, pepper, lemon juice, and zest; let marinate briefly.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil and butter. Sear the cod for 3–4 minutes per side until golden. Remove and keep warm.
- In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and sauté garlic and shallots until fragrant. Add rosemary and cook for another minute.
- Pour in the broth and bring to a simmer. Stir in heavy cream; simmer for about 6–8 minutes until slightly thickened.
