For an enhanced flavor, consider adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to the melted butter. If using fresh cod fillets, reduce the poaching time to 2-3 minutes. Adjust the amount of paprika to your preference. Smoked paprika can also be used for a deeper flavor profile. Serve immediately to enjoy the best flavor and texture.
