This recipe is a great starting point, but I would make a few changes. I would use a different type of fish, such as salmon or tilapia. I would also add more vegetables to the sauce.

This baked cod recipe is a keeper! The fish was flaky and moist, and the lemon-herb sauce was divine. I served it with roasted vegetables and rice, and it was a hit with the whole family.
