  3. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  4. Add cod fillets, skin-side down if they have skin, cook 4-5 min until golden and edges turn opaque.
  5. Flip and cook another 3-4 min until internal temp reaches 145°F and fish flakes easily.
  6. Remove fish and set aside.
  7. In the same skillet, add a splash more oil if needed, then sauté garlic 30 sec until fragrant.
  8. Add green beans, season with salt and pepper, cook 6-8 min until tender and bright green, stirring occasionally.
  9. Squeeze lemon juice over fish and beans before serving.
