Pacific Cod Portions

The Pacific Cod season for us on the F/V Lila Aurora was very successful this year and we are pleased to offer Pacific Cod portions, perfect for one or two servings. Our packages contain portions of Cod fillets, caught by us then filleted by us onboard our fishing boat within a few hours of being caught. They are immediately iced, then vacuum packed and flash frozen (again by us, we need some help!) to lock in freshness. Each portion averages 0.45 lbs, which the USDA says is about two servings, but on the boat we think is more like one hearty serving.

Our Cod portions are boneless with skin on. The skin protects the meat and also is edible. Try pan searing your cod by first placing the portion skin-up in the pan with a touch of oil until the meat shows a bit of color (1 or 2 minutes), then turning the portion skin-down. Season the seared side with salt, pepper, and perhaps dill or thyme while you let the skin side cook. When the meat is opaque you can remove the meat from the pan leaving the skin behind and either discard the skin, or better yet let it crisp a bit and eat it.

Our portions are $12 each, averaging 0.45lbs. When fishing season ends and we return home we will have a wider variety of sizes available.
