Making Buttered Cod is simple and easy when you follow these step-by-step instructions:

1. Preheat the Pan: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of butter and allow it to melt.
2. Prepare the Cod: Season cod fillets with salt and pepper on both sides.
3. Cook the Cod: Place the cod fillets in the hot skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is golden brown and flakes easily with a fork.
4. Make the Butter Sauce: In the last minute of cooking, add the minced garlic to the skillet. Squeeze the lemon juice over the fish and add the remaining butter to the pan.
5. Garnish: Once the butter has melted, sprinkle the chopped parsley over the cod.
6. Serve: Remove the cod from the skillet and plate it with a drizzle of the buttery sauce from the pan. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.
