Instructions

1. Make the sauce: pound the chopped garlic, chopped parsley and a pinch of salt in a mortar to a paste, then mix in the 2 tablespoons olive oil. Set aside.
2. Heat 1/3 cup (90 ml) olive oil in a large pan over medium heat.
3. Pat the cod fillets completely dry on paper towels, season both sides with salt and pepper.
4. When the oil is hot, place the cod skin-side down in a single layer and fry 3 minutes per side, until cooked through. Remove and set aside.
5. In the same pan on the same heat, fry the sliced garlic and crushed red pepper for 30 seconds to 1 minute, stirring until fragrant. Turn off the heat, then add the lemon juice, parsley, and season with salt and pepper.
6. Return the cod to the pan in one layer, spoon oil over the fillets and top each with the garlic sauce.
7. Serve straight from the pan with lemon wedges.
