A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

Here's a great way to turn some simple cod fillets into a delicious dinner. Pan-searing in garlic oil adds a nice nuance to the cod, and the chili stir-fried beans make a perfect pairing on the plate.

4 cod fillets (4 to 6 ounce size), fresh, thawed or frozen
1 1/2 teaspoon peanut oil
2 teaspoons garlic oil
salt and pepper, to taste
2 teaspoons sesame oil
chili garlic sauce or chili oil, to taste
1 pound Chinese long beans, halved, or whole green beans
pickled ginger, optional garnish
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
Rinse any ice glaze from frozen cod fillets under cold water. Pat dry with paper towel.
Heat peanut and garlic oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully add fish to pan and cook until browned, about 3 minutes. Shake pan occasionally to keep fish from sticking.
Turn fillets over and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 1 minute more. Transfer fillets to oven safe dish/pan and bake for 3 to 4 minutes (Reduce cook time by half for fresh or thawed fillets). Cook just until fish is opaque throughout.
While fish is baking, stir-fry beans in sesame and chili garlic sauce.
To serve, divide beans among individual dinner plates and top with cod fillet. Garnish with pickled ginger (optional).
