Cod with Spinach & Garlic Cream Skillet

Flaky cod fillets simmered in a buttery garlic cream sauce with wilted spinach.

This version is completely hands-off once it's in the oven. No searing, no separate pans, and no constant stirring.

📝 Ingredients

Group	Ingredient
The Fish	4 cod fillets (6 oz each)
	Seasoning: Salt, pepper, ½ tsp smoked paprika
The "Instant" Sauce	1 cup heavy cream
	½ cup grated Parmesan
	¼ cup chicken broth (or water)
	3 cloves garlic (minced/jarred)
	Optional: ½ tsp red pepper flakes
The Veggie	3 cups fresh spinach (raw)
Finishers	Lemon wedges and fresh parsley (optional)

🏃‍♂️ Instant Assembly (5 Minutes Prep + 15 Minutes Baking)

1. Prep & Preheat (2 Minutes): Preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C). Grab a medium-sized baking dish (9x13 works best).

2. The Spinach Bed (1 Minute): Lay the raw spinach across the bottom of the baking dish. It looks like a lot, but it will wilt down perfectly under the fish.

3. The Sauce Mix (2 Minutes): In a measuring cup or small bowl, quickly stir together the heavy cream, Parmesan, chicken broth, garlic, paprika, and red pepper flakes.

4. Assemble & Bake (15 Minutes):

   • Place the cod fillets directly on top of the raw spinach.

   • Season the fish with salt and pepper.

   • Pour the cream mixture all over the fish and spinach.

   • Bake for 15–18 minutes until the cod flakes easily and the sauce is bubbling.

5. Serve: Squeeze a lemon wedge over the top. The spinach will have wilted into a delicious cream sauce right under the fish.

💡 The "Busy Parent" Shortcut

• The "One-Bowl" Rule: If you're really in a rush, don't even use a measuring cup for the sauce. Pour the cream and broth directly into the baking dish around the fish, sprinkle the Parmesan and spices on top, and give it a quick swirl with a spoon before sliding it into the oven.

• Frozen Fish: You can use frozen cod fillets! Just run them under cold water for a minute to remove any ice crystals, pat dry, and add 5–7 minutes to the baking time.

• No Chopping: Use jarred garlic and skip the fresh parsley garnish. The paprika gives the dish plenty of color on its own.
