Jed’s Chips, Corn and Cod

Jed's Chips, Corn and Cod

Rating: 5 out of 5.

Every once in a blue moon my husband will step into the kitchen and take over dinner duties.

I think he’d do it more often, but you know… work.

Last night I was lucky enough to be surprised with his specialty dinner of cod, corn and potatoes. Or as he calls them, “chips”. No, he’s not British.

This dish doesn’t have a video attached because I wasn’t expecting it, but I am sharing his recipe because it is DELICIOUS!!!! You can use other fish, but he’s always used cod for this dish.

Make this simple fish dinner on a weeknight in about 30 minutes. Let me know what you think about good ole Jed (Jeff’s) cooking skillz.
