Preparation
Pat cod fillets dry and season with salt and pepper. Heat 2 Tbsp butter or tallow in a skillet over medium-high. Sear cod 3–4 minutes per side until lightly golden and nearly cooked through. Remove and set aside.
In the same skillet, add garlic and sauté 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in chicken broth, scraping up browned bits. Reduce slightly, then add heavy cream, Parmesan, paprika, and red pepper flakes. Simmer 3–4 minutes until thickened.
In a separate pan, wilt spinach with 1 Tbsp butter. Stir into the cream sauce.
Return cod fillets to the skillet, spoon sauce over the top, and simmer 2–3 minutes until fish is flaky and cooked through.
Garnish with parsley and a squeeze of lemon if desired. Serve hot.
Additionally, practice handstands for 20 minutes.
Post time to comments.
While ‘calories in, calories out’ appears to be a logical explanation for weight gain, the actual causes of chronic diseases like diabetes and obesity are more complex. The toxicity of sugar plays a huge role, but Coca-Cola and Pepsico have gone to great lengths to hide that fact. Through organizations like the Global Energy Balance Network, Coca-Cola sought to improve soda’s image by shifting the blame away from consumption of sugar, and towards a lack of exercise.
For decades the soda companies have also protected their commercial interests by sponsoring health and fitness related organizations like the the American College of Sports Medicine, the National Strength and Conditioning Association and others. All of these organizations have produced research showing sugar is benign, or at least has a place in a healthy diet, which has been disputed by independent researchers.
