Pan Seared Cod with Garlic Dill Sauce

Are you a bit shocked that you aren't seeing a recipe for tilapia?  I know, I know, we eat a lot of it... but I thought cod would be a good change of pace.  A nice light white fish that isn't too thick and that Chris should enjoy.....   as long as I don't over cook it.... which I, unfortunately, did.  But that is ok, because there was sauce.  And it was a good sauce... sooooo.... all was well and definitely worth trying... just don't over cook the fish :)

Ingredients:
2 cod fillets
lemon juice
salt and pepper
cayenne pepper
For the sauce -
2 Tablespoons sour cream
2 Tablespoons mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon dried dill
1 teaspoon lemon juice

Directions:
Drizzle a little lemon juice over both fillets.  Season both sides with salt, pepper and cayenne.

In a small bowl, mix together all the ingredients for the sauce until well combined.  Cover and set aside.

Spray a non-stick skillet with cooking spray and play over medium heat.  Once heated, add the cod and cover.  Allow to cook for 5 minutes.  Remove cover, once the fish is slightly browned, flip and continue to cook until the fish flakes easily with a fork, another 5-10 minutes (depending on how thick your pieces are).  Remove from skillet immediately.  Serve with sauce and enjoy.
