Categories     Entree

Time 22m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1.5 lb Cod fillet pieces, (4-6 pieces)
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley leaves
5 tbsp fresh lemon juice
5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 tbsp melted butter
5 garlic cloves, (minced)
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp ground coriander
3/4 tsp sweet Spanish paprika
3/4 tsp ground cumin
3/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Mix together the lemon juice, olive oil, and melted butter in a shallow bowl (do not add the garlic yet). Set aside.
  • In another shallow bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, spices, salt and pepper. Set next to the lemon sauce.
  • Pat the fish dry. Dip the fish in the lemon sauce then dip it in the flour mixture. Shake off excess flour. Reserve the lemon sauce for later.
  • Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a cast iron skillet (or an oven-safe pan) over medium-high heat (watch the oil to be sure it is shimmering but not smoking). Add the fish and sear on each side to give it some color, but do not fully cook (about 2 minutes on each side). Remove the skillet from heat.
  • To the remaining lemon sauce, add the minced garlic and mix. Drizzle all over the fish fillets.
  • Bake in the heated oven until the fish flakes easily with a fork (10 minutes should do it, but begin checking earlier). Remove from the heat and sprinkle chopped parsley. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest cod you can find. Fresh cod will have a firm, white flesh and a mild, slightly sweet flavor. Avoid cod that is discolored or has a strong fishy smell.
  • Use a variety of herbs and spices to flavor the crust. This will give the cod a complex and flavorful taste. Some good options include lemon zest, thyme, rosemary, garlic powder, and paprika.
  • Be sure to coat the cod evenly with the herb crust. This will help to ensure that the cod is cooked evenly and that the flavors are evenly distributed.
  • Cook the cod at a high temperature for a short period of time. This will help to keep the cod moist and flaky. A good rule of thumb is to cook the cod for 10-12 minutes per inch of thickness.
  • Serve the cod immediately with your favorite sides. Some good options include roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

Lemon Herb Crusted Cod is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The cod is cooked to perfection and the herb crust adds a wonderful flavor. Serve this dish with your favorite sides for a complete and satisfying meal.
