Crispy Gulf Coast Blackened Cod

Method

1. Start by prepping your olive oil, lemon, garlic so the cooking goes quickly.
2. Set a wide pan over medium heat and sweat the leeks in a little butter until translucent.
3. Add the blackened cod and let it crispy, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
4. Stir in the garlic along with a good pinch of salt, scraping up anything stuck to the bottom of the pan.
5. Add the white wine and let it reduce until it just coats the back of a spoon.
6. Taste and adjust, then finish with a handful of herbs right before serving.
7. Serve warm, ideally with something to soak up the sauce.
