Quick, but incredibly delicious. This dish works wonderfully for both busy weekdays and when entertaining guests. The browned butter sauce is made with crispy panko, capers, cornichons and dill. It pairs really well with this. The cod can easily be substituted with other fish if you prefer.
Enjoy the dish optionally with new potatoes.
