    • Add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms, cooking for about 5-7 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and have released their moisture.

  4. Combine and Serve:
    • Return the cooked cod fillets to the skillet, nestling them among the garlic mushrooms.
    • Sprinkle the dish with chopped fresh parsley and cook for an additional 2 minutes to warm the cod.
