    Total Time: 8 minutes

    By Fiona Haynes; Low Fat Cooking Expert: "This supper dish can be made with any firm-fleshed white fish. Paired with a lemony vinaigrette and fresh herbs, pepper-crusted cod makes a delicious, tangy week night meal. Serve with new potatoes and vegetables, or with a spinach salad and crusty bread. The fat in this recipe is largely monunsaturated, which is the heart-healthy kind."

    2 tbsp mixed whole peppercorns, coarsely crushed
    1 tbsp all-purpose flour
    1/8 tsp salt
    4 6-ounce skinless cod fillets
    1 garlic clove, crushed
    1 tbsp Dijon mustard
    Juice and grated peel of 1 large lemon
    3 tbsp olive oil
    pinch of salt and ground black pepper
    2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped

    Preparation:
    Mix peppercorns, flour and salt. Coat cod fillets in flour and peppercorn mix, pressing on both sides. Set aside.

    In a small bowl, and using a whisk, stir garlic, mustard, lemon peel, juice, oil, salt and pepper, and cilantro.

    Spray a large nonstick frying pan with nonfat cooking spray. Add fish and saute for about 3 minutes per side, until golden. Pour vinaigrette into the pan and heat for 2 minutes until sauce is reduced a little.

    Serve on 4 plates with potatoes and green vegetables, or with a salad.
