Whiskey-Glazed Cod
Recipe by Linda Gassenheimer
3/4 pound cod fillet
1/4 cup whole wheat breadcrumbs
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Olive oil spray
1/4 cup reduced-fat mayonnaise
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons whiskey
1/4 cup chopped chives
Rinse cod, pat dry with paper towel and coat with breadcrumbs, making sure both sides are well coated. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Spray with olive oil spray. Add cod and saute 3 minutes, turn and saute 3 minutes for a 3/4-inch thick fillet. If thicker, saute 4 minutes, turn and saute 4 minutes. Test by pulling the flesh away with the point of a knife. It should be opaque not translucent. Remove to individual plates. Whisk mayonnaise, lemon juice and whiskey together in a small bowl and spoon over cod. Sprinkle chives on top.
