Steamed Cod with Dill-Lemon Butter and Spring Vegetables



Steamed Cod with Dill-Lemon Butter and Spring Vegetables

4 cod fillets
1 tsp chopped dill
4 drops of lemon
1/3 cup white cooking wine
8 tbs butter
1 package frozen vegetables (broccoli, carrots, snap peas, and water chestnuts)
Salt and pepper

Season the fish with salt and pepper and steam for about 20 minutes depending on the size of the fillet. If you don’t have a bamboo steamer, you can braise the fish with very little water (maybe 1/4 cup) covered.

Put the vegetables in the microwave to thaw out and set aside.

Simmer the white cooking wine and turn the burner off. Add 1 tablespoon at a time of butter and swirl it around the pan until all is melted. Add dill and lemon. Season with salt and pepper.

Put vegetables in a small bowl and drizzle part of the butter. Mix them up and serve them on the plate. Add the fish and drizzle it with the rest of the butter. Enjoy!
