5. Grate the ground black peppercorn and lightly sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese over the cod fillets.
6. Place the iron skillet in the oven for 1 minute if you have a broiler, 2-3 minutes otherwise.
7. Remove skillet from the oven and remove the fillets from the skillet. Allow to sit for 2 minutes.
