Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces codfish fillets
- 3 tablespoons raw honey
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Pat the codfish fillets dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Once the skillet is hot, add the codfish fillets and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the fillets from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
Lower the heat to medium-low and add the butter to the same skillet. Allow it to melt completely.
Finely mince the garlic and add it to the melted butter. Sauté for 30-60 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Add the honey and lemon juice to the skillet and stir to combine.
Finely chop the fresh chives and stir them into the honey mixture. Cook the sauce for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.
Return the codfish fillets to the skillet and spoon the honey-chive sauce over the fillets, ensuring they are well coated.
Simmer the fillets in the sauce for 2-3 minutes to infuse the flavors.
Remove the skillet from heat and serve the Honey Chive Codfish immediately, garnished with additional fresh chives if desired. Pair with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables or steamed rice.
