Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Cod fillets
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 2 medium Yellow onions
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 1.5 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 4 pieces Lemon wedges
Instructions
Season the cod fillets with salt and black pepper on both sides. Set aside.
Peel and thinly slice the yellow onions into half-moons.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the sliced onions to the skillet and stir to coat them in the oil and butter.
Reduce heat to medium-low and cook the onions for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly caramelized.
Stir in the honey and balsamic vinegar with the onions, cooking for an additional 3-4 minutes until the mixture is glazed and fragrant. Remove the onions from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and heat over medium heat.
Place the cod fillets in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the fillets, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Transfer the cooked cod to serving plates and top each fillet with a generous portion of the honey-glazed onions.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side for a bright, zesty finish.
