How to Make Spicy Cajun Style Cod
- Pat 4 (6-ounce) cod fillets dry with paper towels. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice.
- Season both sides of the cod fillets with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning. Rub the seasoning generously onto both sides of the cod fillets, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the butter is hot and foamy, carefully place the cod fillets in the skillet.
- Cook the cod fillets for 4 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through and flake easily with a fork. Reduce heat slightly if browning too quickly.
- While the cod cooks, prepare the slaw: Thinly slice 1 medium carrot and 1 medium zucchini into julienne strips.
- Remove the cod from the skillet and serve immediately over the carrot and zucchini slaw. Top with 2 tablespoons of sour cream per serving and garnish with 1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley or dill.
