BAKED COD IN CREAM SAUCE



Baked Cod in Cream Sauce image

Many years ago there was a restaurant in Salt Lake City that served a cod in cream sauce, which I loved. This recipe is very similar, but theirs had mushrooms in it. My husband won't eat mushrooms, so they are not included here.

Provided by Judy Garcia @snflwr8351

Categories     Fish

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 cod fillets
1 teaspoon(s) salt, or to taste
4 tablespoon(s) butter, melted
2 clove(s) garlic, finely minced
1/2 cup(s) seasoned bread crumbs
FOR THE CREAM SAUCE
3 tablespoon(s) butter
3 tablespoon(s) cornstarch
2 cup(s) heavy cream or half-and-half
1 cup(s) milk
3 tablespoon(s) parmesan cheese, grated
salt and black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Prepare cream sauce (see instructions below) and set aside, keep warm.
  • Spray a 9 x 13 baking dish with cooking spray and place fillets in pan. Sprinkle with salt.
  • Combine melted butter and garlic, then brush over fillets. Reserve any leftover butter mixture.
  • Sprinkle seasoned bread crumbs over fillets and pour remaining butter mixture over the top.
  • Pour cream sauce around fillets so it fills up the baking dish and just the tops of the fillets are visible.
  • Put baking pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the cream sauce starts bubbling. When the sauce starts to bubble, change oven setting to "broil" and broil for 3-5 minutes or until the fillets start to turn golden brown. Watch very closely so they don't burn.
  • Remove from oven and serve with rice, potatoes or pasta and vegetables.
  • FOR THE CREAM SAUCE: Melt butter in a medium sauce pan over medium heat. Slowly stir in cornstarch and cook for about 1 minute. While whisking constantly, slowly add the cream and milk until well combined. Stir in Parmesan cheese. Reduce heat to low and cook, whisking occasionally, for 10 minutes until sauce becomes rich and creamy, adding more milk, if needed. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

COD WITH MUSTARD CREAM SAUCE



Cod With Mustard Cream Sauce image

I made this last night and it was delightful. It is also very quick easy to make! I served it with Italian Potatoes and Spinach #81302.

Provided by Lorac

Categories     Very Low Carbs

Time 25m

Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb cod, 1 1/2 to 2 inches thick
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon white wine
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
kosher salt, flakes
white pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°.
  • Cut fish into serving size pieces and place in a lightly buttered baking dish.
  • Combine cream, mustard, wine and chives and pour over fish.
  • Season with salt and pepper and bake 15 minutes or until fish turns opaque in the center.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cod. Fresh cod has a mild, flaky flavor that pairs well with the delicate cream sauce. If you're using frozen cod, be sure to thaw it completely before cooking.
  • Season the cod generously. Cod is a mild-flavored fish, so it's important to season it well. Use a combination of salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs, such as thyme, rosemary, or basil.
  • Cook the cod until it is just opaque. Overcooked cod is tough and dry, so it's important to cook it just until it is opaque in the center. This will take about 10 minutes per inch of thickness.
  • Make the cream sauce while the cod is cooking. This will help to ensure that the sauce is ready when the cod is done.
  • Serve the cod with your favorite sides. Baked cod with cream sauce pairs well with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

Baked cod with cream sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish. It's perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. With its mild flavor and delicate sauce, baked cod is sure to please everyone at your table.
