I used Blue Cod for this recipe and it is not as flavorful as regular cod so the garlic was perfect with it. Instead of using butter or margerine I used a no-oil spray so the fish wouldn't stick to the broiler pan. I placed thin sliced garlic right on the fish rather than frying it, along with the lemon juice. Because I love spice I sprinkled a tsp of Cajum spice on the fish. The cilantro is a nice finishing touch of flavor -
Well, this was OK. It really wasn't any different than any other way I prepare it. The flavor really didn't come out well, but maybe I did something wrong. Thanks anyway...
