Ingredients

16 to 24 ounces cod fillets halibut or flounder for substitute (4 fillets)

3 tablespoons olive oil divided

1/4 teaspoon kosher or sea salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground

1 cup of bread crumbs

2 lemons one cut in halves, one cut in wedges

Instructions

Allow the fish to sit in a bowl at room temperature for 10- 15 minutes.
Rub one tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle salt and pepper on both sides of each fillet, then lightly bread crumb on both sides then place a skillet or sauté pan over medium heat and add two tablespoons of olive oil. When the oil is hot and shimmering, but not smoking, after about one minute, add the fish. Cook for two to three minutes on each side, so that each side is browned and the fish is half way cooked through. Now add your onions and peppers on top and simmer till soft and translucent put lemon halves over the fish, onions, and peppers, simmer for a few more minutes till the juices of the lemons start to release the flavors then remove from the heat. If there is any lemon juice left in the pan, pour it over the fish to serve. Serve with lemon wedges.
