Serves: 2
Ingredients
  • 2 fillets of cod (or other white meat fish such as halibut), I think the thicker cut fillets work better
  • 1 stick butter, melted
  • ¼ cup sugar OR ½ potato OR 20 oz 7-Up or other lemon/lime soda
Instructions
  1. Boil the fish in either: 1) water + ¼ cup sugar, 2) water+1/2 potato, or 3) lemon/lime soda, for about 10 minutes or until the fish begins to flake apart.
  2. Serve immediately, dip in drawn butter.
