Ingredients

• 1 lemon
• 2 teaspoons butter
• 2 (4 ounce) cod loins
• 1 shallot, thinly sliced
• 1 pinch salt and freshly ground black pepper

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Fill a large pot with water. Attach an immersion circulator to the pot. Set the temperature to 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) and the timer to 35 minutes.

Step 2

Lower the bags into the water and submerge until all the air has been expelled. Close the corners.

Step 3

Season cod lightly with salt and pepper. Top each piece with 1/2 of the lemon zest, 1 teaspoon butter, and two lemon slices.

Step 4

Divide the shallot slices between two resealable bags. Place a cod loin on top of the shallots. Close the bags, leaving 1 small corner open.

Step 5

Wait until the timer goes off and remove the bags. Carefully transfer cod to serving plates. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of cooking liquid from each bag over each loin. Garnish with extra lemon slices.
