Pat cod fillets dry with a paper towel. Season both sides of the cod fillets with sea salt and black pepper.

In a large non-stick skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter until foaming subsides.

Place the seasoned cod fillets in the skillet and sear for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until flaky and lightly golden.

Place the cooked fillets on a warm plate and reduce the heat on the skillet to low.

In the same skillet, add minced garlic, stirring continuously for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Don't let it brown as that means it's burnt and will taste bitter.

Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, freshly squeezed lemon juice, and finely grated lemon zest to the skillet, stirring until the butter is melted.

Pour the lemon-butter sauce over the pan-seared cod fillets and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley.
