  • Sear the cod in a hot skillet: This will create a crispy crust and help to keep the fish moist and flaky.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet: If you overcrowd the skillet, the fish will not cook evenly and will steam instead of sear.
  • Use a flavorful vinaigrette: A good vinaigrette will add flavor and acidity to the fish. The cilantro vinaigrette in this recipe is a great option.
  • Make sure the creamed corn is hot and creamy: The creamed corn is a delicious and comforting side dish for the cod. Make sure it is hot and creamy before serving.
