This cod piccata is lemony, bright, and fresh. The most challenging thing about this recipe is to avoid overcooking the cod, while making the tangy and delightful sauce. My trick is to brown only one side of the fish, and allow it to finish in the sauce.
1 1/2 pounds cod filets, in serving-sized pieces
salt and pepper to taste
4 teaspoons all-purpose flour, divided
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
1 large lemon, half thinly sliced, half reserved
2 tablespoons thinly sliced shallot
3 tablespoons capers, rinsed and drained
1/4 cup dry white wine
3/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley, plus a few sprigs for garnish (optional)
