Ingredients
- Fresh cod fillets
- Yukon Gold potatoes
- Heavy cream
- Fresh rosemary
- Unsalted butter
- Fresh garlic
- Low-sodium vegetable broth
Instructions
- Prepare the Ingredients: Start by washing and peeling your potatoes. Cut them into even-sized cubes, about 1-inch each, for uniform cooking. Rinse the cod fillets and pat them dry with paper towels.
- Sauté the Potatoes: In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the cubed potatoes and cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally until they are golden and tender. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Add Garlic and Rosemary: Once the potatoes are tender, add minced garlic and chopped fresh rosemary to the skillet. Sauté for another minute until fragrant.
- Make the Cream Sauce: Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a gentle simmer. Let it cook for about 5 minutes to reduce slightly. Then, add the heavy cream and stir well, allowing the mixture to thicken for another 3-4 minutes.
- Cook the Cod: Gently place the cod fillets into the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over them. Cover the skillet and let the fish cook for about 6-8 minutes, or until the cod is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Be careful not to overcook!
- Finalize the Dish: Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning with more salt, pepper, or rosemary as desired. If you want a little extra richness, add a tablespoon of butter to the sauce just before serving.
- Serve: Plate the potatoes and cod, drizzling the creamy rosemary sauce over the top. Garnish with additional fresh rosemary if you like.
