This particular recipe came from an old Pillsbury magazine - September of 2000 to be exact.
I liked it - I really liked the red pepper. The garlic/citrus flavor was nice too. It was just a bit dry, but that was totally my fault. I also wasn't the biggest fan of the tomato. Too squishy after being steamed. Would have been nice added raw after cooking though. I loved the way this looked in the pan so I took a picture of it. Loved the green, red and white.
Ingredients
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- 1 lb. cod fillets (we had 1.3-1.5 lbs can't remember exactly -I cut it into 6 fillets)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt - didn't measure, just sprinkled
- 3/4 teaspoon garlic herb blend (original was garlic pepper but I didn't have that.)
- a few grinds of pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano leaves (I used a generous 1/2 teaspoon since I had extra fish.)
- 1 tomato, sliced
- 1 red bell pepper cut into rings
- 2 limes, sliced (original was 1/2 lemon)
Directions
- Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Sprinkle cod with salt; place in skillet. Cook 2 to 3 minutes or until browned, turning once. (Only about 1 piece of mine showed any "browning." But they were cooking more than I wanted.
- Sprinkle cod with garlic/herb blend, oregano, and pepper. Top with tomato and bell pepper. Arrange lime slices around inside edge of skillet. Reduce heat to medium-low; (I think I forgot to reduce the heat - don't forget, my cod was overdone.) Cover and cook 10-12 minutes or until fish flakes easily with fork and vegetables are tender. If skillet becomes dry, add 1-2 Tablespoons of water. (I didn't need to do this, the limes provided plenty of moisture.)
