Notes

Cut the potatoes irregularly; this will allow the starch from the potatoes to come out easily and make the sauce creamy

Instructions

Clean the cod filets and pat them dry with paper towels—season with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet to medium and add the olive oil.
Place the filet's skin side down and let them cook for about 5 minutes on each side; reserve.
In the same oil (or adding a bit more if needed), add the garlic, onion, and pepper. Cook for a few minutes, just until the onion is translucent.
Add the potatoes and fish stock and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and let them simmer, covered, until the potatoes are soft (around 15 minutes).
In another skillet, heat the olive oil and add the sweet paprika. Cook for a couple of minutes and reserve.
Once the potatoes are soft, add the cod back to the skillet and top with the oil with paprika.
Serve with fresh parsley.
