Ingredients 10
- 1 1/2 pounds cod ( 4 fillets)
- 2 teaspoons smoked paprika (also called pimentón)*
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder

Method 3
- 01
In a small bowl, combine the smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, celery seed, and kosher salt . Pat the cod dry and sprinkle all sides with the seasoning.
- 02
Heat a large skillet over medium high heat and add the butter and olive oil. When butter is melted, add the cod and cook for 2 minutes.
- 03
Flip the cod and pour the lemon juice over the fish. Cook an additional 1 to 2 minutes until the cod is tender and starts to flake when you prick it with a fork (adjust based on the thickness of the fillets). Remove from the heat and sprinkle with the parsley. Serve immediately, drizzled with the juices from the pan.
