Pepper Crusted Cod (7 pts)



This supper dish can be made with any firm-fleshed white fish. Paired with a lemony vinaigrette and fresh herbs, pepper-crusted cod makes a delicious, tangy week night meal. Serve with new potatoes and vegetables, or with a spinach salad and crusty bread. The fat in this recipe is largely monunsaturated, which is the heart-healthy kind.

INGREDIENTS:

* 2 tbsp mixed whole peppercorns, coarsely crushed
* 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
* 1/4 tsp salt
* 4 6-ounce skinless cod fillets
* 1 garlic clove, crushed
* 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
* Juice and grated peel of 1 large lemon
* 3 tbsp olive oil
* pinch of salt and ground black pepper
* 2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped

PREPARATION:
Mix peppercorns, flour and salt. Coat cod fillets in flour and peppercorn mix, pressing on both sides. Set aside.

In a small bowl, and using a whisk, stir garlic, mustard, lemon peel, juice, oil, salt and pepper, and cilantro. Spray a large nonstick frying pan with nonfat cooking spray.

Add fish and saute for about 3 minutes per side, until golden. Pour vinaigrette into the pan and heat for 2 minutes until sauce is reduced a little.

Serve on 4 plates with potatoes and green vegetables, or with a salad.
