I wasn’t sure what I wanted for lunch today, but I thawed out a Cod fish filet just in case. If I changed my mind, it could wait a day or two. Last week, I bought some frozen Cod filets in a bag. There are individually packaged filets in plastic bags and I can thaw them out as I need. No need to thaw the whole bunch. Great idea.
I used an aluminum baking pan, fired up the broiler and got to work. Alone, a Cod filet is a bit bland, so I needed to pump some flavor into this thing. I happen to like red peppers, so that was my choice today, along with some Mango seasoning from Weber. I love that other people know how to make these great seasonings and I don’t have to mess with that. I’ll let Rachel and Bobby and Giada do that.
I sprayed the pan with Pam ( a Pam pan) and slid the fish out of the bag and into the pan. I also sprinkled some garlic salt over the fish. I love garlic. Then I put on the Mango seasoning. To speed up the process, I had already cut up a little bit of red pepper and zapped the stuff in the micro for two minutes. Next, I sprinkled the peppers and their juice onto the fish, placed it in the broiler, set the timer for six minutes (a best guess) and, presto, I had my lunch in about fifteen minutes, total.
