4 cod fillets (about 6 oz each), skin-on or skinless
1 tsp fine sea salt
2 tbsp olive oil

For the herb butter

3 tbsp unsalted butter
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

1
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.
