Chef’s Tips
- For a low-carb version of this potato-crusted cod piccata, replace the pasta with zucchini noodles or spaghetti squash! You’ll still feel like you’re eating something rich and comforting, but with a fraction of the carbs.
- If you’d prefer, you can substitute the white wine with vegetable broth and lemon juice. Replace the ½ cup of dry white wine with an equal amount of broth, plus 1 tablespoon of fresh-squeezed lemon juice. The broth will give you plenty of flavor, while the lemon juice brightens things up!
- Any and all pasta shapes will work! This potato-crusted cod piccata is super easy to customize, and make your own. Swap out or add in any seasonings, herbs, or ingredients you’d like.
