Cod with Thyme and Cranberries

This is the first time I have blended a savory taste with cranberries. I have to say, the results were fantastic: mild yet flavorful, tart, savory and herbaceous....just right! The preparation is simple and fast and the colors are wonderful for your holiday table.


Ingredients:
Cod fillets (thawed or fresh): 4 pieces
Fresh Thyme leaves
Fresh Cranberries (as desired)
Olive Oil 2tbsp
Kosher salt to taste
Orange peel

Cooking Method (Prep and cook time: total 8-10 minutes)
Heat oil in a shallow pan on low heat. Salt fish fillets and shallow fry for 2 minutes covered on one side and turn over, add thyme leaves and orange peel (adds the citrus essence) to shallow-fry for another 2 minutes covered. Add the cranberries and cover again for 30 seconds. And you're done! Take out the orange peel (it was simply added for flavoring), serve with thyme and cranberries on top. Enjoy!
