2 cups chicken broth
2 tbsp fresh parsley rinsed, dried, and chopped
12 oz cod fillet cut into 4 portions (3 oz each)
0.5 tsp salt
0.25 tsp ground black pepper

Directions:

Heat butter in a large sauté pan. Sear each cod filet for 3 minutes until golden brown on one side then remove from pan
Add leeks and carrots, and cook gently for 3–5 minutes, stirring often, until the vegetables begin to soften.
Add potatoes, chicken broth, parsley, and salt and pepper, and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat and simmer gently until the vegetables are just tender about 10–12 minutes.
