Method
 

Cooking Steps
  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add halved baby potatoes and cook for about 15 minutes until fork-tender. Drain and set aside.
  2. Season the cod fillets with salt and pepper. In a non-stick skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Cook the seasoned fish for 3-4 minutes on each side until flaky and golden. Remove from heat.
  3. In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium-low and melt butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant. Stir in heavy cream and chicken broth, and simmer for 4-5 minutes until slightly thickened.
  4. Add chopped rosemary and lemon juice to the sauce. Stir well and allow to meld for another minute.
  5. Fold cooked potatoes into the sauce, ensuring they are coated. Nestle cod fillets back into the skillet and spoon sauce over them. Heat for about 2 minutes.
  6. Transfer to serving plates, drizzle with additional sauce, and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve immediately.
