Provided by Stephanie Corbitt

Categories     Fish

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 Tbsp coarse fresh breadcrumbs
1 Tbsp chopped fresh tarragon
1/2 tsp lemon zest, grated
2 tsp butter, melted
2 pinch salt and pepper
2 slice cod fillets, about 6 ounces each and 1 inch thick
1/2 tsp dijon mustard

Steps:

  • 1. Heat the oven to 450 degrees.
  • 2. In a small bowl, gently mix the crumbs, tarragon, lemon zest, melted butter, and a little salt and pepper.
  • 3. Spread each fillet with 1/4 teaspoon mustard and season with more salt and pepper. Carefully pat the crumb topping over the surface of each fillet, pressing lightly so it sticks.
  • 4. Brush a little oil onto a small baking sheet or shallow baking pan and set the fillets on the oiled spot (or use a nonstick pan). Bake the fish in the hot oven until the topping is golden brown and crisp and the fish is tender all the way through when you poke it with a thin knife or a skewer, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • 5. If the topping seems like it's going to burn before the fish is done, turn the heat down to 375?. Serve immediately.

BAKED COD WITH BUTTERY CRACKER TOPPING



Baked Cod With Buttery Cracker Topping image

Baked, stuffed fish is an old-school restaurant staple in New England; covered in lemony, butter-soaked cracker crumbs, it's a wonderful way to eat mild white fish like cod or haddock. The dish has a long history and relies on two ingredients New Englanders have in abundance: fresh seafood and crackers, which are descended from sailors' hardtack. Fannie Farmer's 1896 "Boston Cooking-School Cook Book" has a recipe for cracker-stuffed halibut, seasoned with butter, salt, pepper and onion juice. Some modern versions use saltines, others use butter crackers like Ritz, and many enrich the crackers with crab meat. This recipe is an easy weeknight variation: Instead of rolling the fish up around the stuffing, which requires long, thin filets, it is generously covered in the stuffing and roasted until the cracker topping is toasted and the fish flakes.

Provided by Sarah DiGregorio

Categories     easy, weeknight, seafood, main course

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 ounces butter-flavored crackers, such as Ritz (about 1½ sleeves; 1½ cups crushed)
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup minced fresh chives
1/4 cup minced flat-leaf parsley
1/2 lemon, zest and juice, plus more lemon wedges for serving
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
4 (6- to 8-ounce) fillets of cod, haddock, halibut or other white fish
Coarse kosher salt and black pepper
Sweet paprika, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Put the crackers in a medium bowl and use your hand to crush them until they are finely crushed. (Some coarser bits are OK.) Add 4 tablespoons of the melted butter, the chives, parsley, lemon zest and onion and garlic powders, and stir to evenly combine, making sure to moisten all the crumbs.
  • Put the fish fillets in a large, ovenproof skillet. Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon butter over the fish and turn to coat. Season the fish on all sides with salt and pepper. Mound the cracker mixture on top of the fish, covering it. (Some cracker crumbs will fall off the fish.)
  • Roast in the oven for 10 to 16 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets. Plan for about 10 minutes per inch; the fish should flake easily, and the juices should be bubbly around the edges. Squeeze the lemon juice over the top. Sprinkle with paprika, and serve with extra lemon wedges on the side.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality cod fillets: Look for fillets that are firm and have a mild, fresh smell. Avoid fillets that are thin or have a slimy texture.
  • Use fresh herbs: Tarragon is a key ingredient in this recipe, so be sure to use fresh herbs for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh tarragon, you can substitute 1/2 teaspoon of dried tarragon.
  • Make sure the breadcrumbs are evenly coated: To ensure that the crumb crust is evenly browned, be sure to coat the cod fillets in the breadcrumb mixture evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the cod fillets, be sure to not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the fillets from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the cod fillets until they are cooked through: The cod fillets are cooked through when they are opaque and flaky. Be careful not to overcook the fillets, or they will become dry.

Conclusion:

This recipe for Cod Fillets with Mustard Tarragon Crumb Crust is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The cod fillets are tender and flaky, and the crumb crust is flavorful and crispy. The mustard tarragon sauce adds a tangy and herbaceous flavor to the dish. Serve the cod fillets with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
