Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure even baking.
  2. Peel and chop the potatoes into bite-sized pieces.
Cooking
  1. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped potatoes and cook until golden and tender, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  2. While the potatoes are cooking, season the cod fillets with salt, pepper, and minced garlic.
  3. Push the potatoes to the sides of the skillet and add the seasoned cod fillets into the center.
  4. Pour heavy cream over the cod fillets and sprinkle fresh rosemary on top.
  5. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the cod is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  6. Serve your creamy cod dish warm, garnished with additional rosemary if desired.

Notes

Tips: Don’t skip the fresh herbs for flavor. Serve with a green salad or crusty bread. Leftover cod can be used in salads or wraps.
