Pork butt on smoker, corn on cobb, German potatoes
That is a fantasy meal. Love German potato salad, never hear it mentioned much.
Anybody have a good cream sauce/or other sauce recipe suggestion to go with Atlantic cod fish? I can look up recipes but would like tried and true recommendation from one of y'all...I'm back to taking off work early, or most regular folk end of day time), to make dinner due to Larry's deteriorating health..tomorrow night wild caught fish night (I know...it's not Friday yet)..
Would love any/all suggestions.

Here is a good sauce one!
Ingredients
For the Cod:
- 2 6-ounce wild Pacific Cod fillets (1/2-inch thick)
- 1/4 cup flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1/3 cup olive oil (divided)
For the Lemon-Garlic Sauce:
- 2 garlic cloves, grated or minced
- 1/2 lemon, thinly sliced
- 1/3 cup white wine
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1/3 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons soft butter
- 1 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
Instructions
For the Cod:
- Pat the cod fillets with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
- Combine the flour, salt and pepper together and dredge the cod fillets.
- Heat a cast iron or heavy-bottomed skillet set over medium-high. When it is hot, swirl 3 tablespoons of the oil over the bottom of the pan and add the flour-dusted fillets. Cook for about 3 or 4 minutes. Do not move the fish. As the crust forms it will release from the pan. Give the fillet a nudge with a turner, after 3 minutes, if it moves flip it and cook the other side for 3-4 minutes. Transfer the fish to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
For the Lemon-Garlic Sauce:
- In a small skillet or saucepan set over medium-low heat, heat the remaining olive oil and add the garlic and lemon slices and cook until the garlic is fragrant. Pour in the wine, chicken broth and the lemon juice. Simmer for 3-4 minutes. Remove and discard the lemon slices and taste to adjust seasoning.
- In a small dish, combine the soft butter and cornstarch to make a paste then stir in 2-3 tablespoons of the hot sauce. Whisk the mixture into the sauce and cook until slightly thickened, then stir in the thyme leaves. Transfer the sauce to a dish or pitcher. Plate the reserved fish and spoon the hot sauce over the fish.
I am so sorry to hear Larry’s health is not getting better. Hang in there Cindy. HUGS!!!
Thanx GP.. a quick, tasty, sauce. Can't go wrong w garlic and lemon!
I had fresh wild caught cod for supper last night. I just pan fried it in butter with some seafood seasoning and lime.
Did you catch it? You stated fresh so I assumed you probably did. Nothing beats fresh food. Sounds simple and delicious Doc.
That sounds really good, garlic, lemon and butter…..with fresh fish, unbeatable.
"Fresh" is what we call it if it has never been frozen. I am at my sister's house in Mississippi and the markets here get same day fish from the docks on the Gulf. You can tell it is very fresh.
That’s how we define “fresh” as well. Why I assumed you caught it. Have a great time in Mississippi and enjoy the fresh seafood.
I guess I can't say mine was actually fresh...I'll just say Alaskan "wild caught" flash frozen. I still haven't made it. My butt was dragging yesterday afternoon and mother had made beef stew, so I took a container and we ate that. Today had to take larry for his weekly appt. We didn't get back til about 5:30. He wanted to stop and grab something on way home...maybe I'll make the fish tomorrow.
Steak n cheese from firehouse subs and an ice cold beer, next I think I have two episodes of Louisiana law .
I hope you enjoy it. Listen, the closer to the water the better the meal. I’m sure freezing it immediately after it was Cleaned and dressed will be terrific.
Firehouse is one of my faves for any sub!
Whenever I am hungry for a sub, I go to Firehouse and order a medium pastrami and provolone on wheat, fully involved. It's always good!
Lets see yesterday I had a protein smoothy for breakfast. An avocado for lunch & beef stew for supper. And a big bag of Jax cheese curls for movie snacking. I watched True Lies & started binge watching House of Cards.
Went to Firehouse last Friday with my wife. Had what I think was called New Yorker, it was Pastrami and Beef Brisket with provolone. That was a good sub.
