- 1 tsp fine sea salt

Chef's tipUse a stick or block-style dairy-free butter - not a soft tub spread - and swap one-for-one. - 2 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
For serving
- 1 tbsp fresh chives, thinly sliced (optional)
Instructions

Pat the cod fillets thoroughly dry with paper towels, then season both sides evenly with the sea salt. Let the fillets rest at room temperature for 5 minutes while you prepare the remaining ingredients.

Heat the olive oil in a 12-inch stainless steel or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until the oil shimmers and a drop of water flicked in sizzles immediately.
