1: Rinse the cod and pat it dry with a paper towel. Season both sides generously with kosher salt. 2: In a large skillet over medium heat, add half of the butter and all of the olive oil. 3: Once the butter is melted and sizzling, carefully place the cod into the pan. Sear for about 2 minutes per side, until lightly golden. Remove the fish and set aside. 4: In the same skillet, add the remaining butter along with the grated ginger and sliced peppers. Sauté for about 2 minutes until softened. 5: Stir in the garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant. 6: Pour in the coconut milk, chicken broth, and orange juice. Whisk gently and let the sauce simmer on medium heat for 3–4 minutes, allowing it to reduce and thicken slightly. 7: Return the cod to the skillet and gently spoon the sauce over the fish. Let it simmer for 1–2 minutes, basting to infuse it with flavor. 8: Serve the cod over your favorite side—rice, quinoa, or even sautéed greens—and generously spoon that silky coconut ginger sauce over the top. 9: Enjoy a restaurant-worthy dish made right at home.
