Diet Cod With Garlic Recipe

The Recipe Instructions

Ingredients

1 1/2 lb fresh cod fillets
1/4 cup plus (see next line)
1 tbsp fresh lime juice
1 tsp olive oil
1 tbsp unsalted butter
5 tbsp thinly sliced garlic
3 tbsp flour
4 tbsp coarsley chopped fresh cilantro
1 salt and pepper

Directions

Rinse the fillets and pat dry. Place the fillets in a glass or enamel
coated dish with 2" sides, and sprinkle with the lime juice. Cover
with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour. In a large heavy
skillet, combine the oil and butter and heat over medium heat. Add
the garlic and saute only until light brown; be careful not to burn
or the dish will be bitter. Using a slotted spoon, remove the garlic
and set aside; remove the pan from the heat, but hold for cooking the
fish. Remove the fish from the dish, reserving the lime juice, and
pat dry with a paper towel. Dust it lightly with the flour and shake
off the excess. Warm the skillet over medium-high heat and quickly
fry the fish 2-3 minutes per side, or until brown and crisp outside
and just done on the inside. Remove fish to a heated platter and keep
warm while you finish the dish. Return the garlic to the skillet and
reheat. Stir in the reserved lime juice, cilantro, and salt and
pepper to taste. Heat just until the cilantro begins to wilt.Pour the
sauce over the fish and serve immediately.

"A good cook is the peculiar gift of the gods. He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate, from the palate to the finger's end.
"Walter Savage Landor"

"A diet is the penalty we pay for exceeding the feed limit."

"Reality check: you can never, ever, use weight loss to solve problems that are not related to your weight. At your goal weight or not, you still have to live with yourself and deal with your problems. You will still have the same husband, the same job, the same kids, and the same life. Losing weight is not a cure for life"
