Preparation Steps
- Season your cod fillets generously with salt and pepper on both sides. Let them rest for about 5 minutes.
- Dredge each cod fillet in all-purpose flour, making sure to coat entirely while shaking off excess flour.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil and butter over medium-high heat until the butter melts and foams.
- Place the dredged cod fillets in the skillet, cooking for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Transfer the cooked cod fillets to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
- In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of unsalted butter and sauté the minced garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Pour in lemon juice and chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the pan and let simmer for 2-3 minutes.
- Stir in the rinsed capers and let simmer for an additional 2 minutes.
- Reduce heat to low and whisk in the remaining tablespoon of butter, adjusting seasoning as needed.
- Return the warmed cod fillets to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them and heating through for 1-2 minutes.
- Plate the Cod Piccata, garnishing with parsley and lemon slices. Serve immediately.
