Peppered Cod

from the French recipe Cabillaud au Poivre (photo is in my archive. will figure out how to add to recipes later)

• Ready In: 14 mins
• Yields: 2

Ingredients

• 2  tablespoons  4 season's peppercorns
• 2 (175 g)  thick cod fish fillets
• 1  tablespoon olive oil

Directions

1. coarsely crack the peppercorns.
2. lightly salt the fish fillets then roll them in the cracked pepper.
3. heat the oil in a frying pan and brown the fillets on all sides for 3 minutes, or until just cooked through. [take care not to over cook. if necessary cook each fillet at a time, try not to steam the fish by overcrowding the pan].
4. serve with a salad, pasta or crusty bread on the side.
