Baked Cod Recipe with Lemon and Garlic image

Best baked cod recipe out there! Prepared Mediterranean style with a few spices and a mixture of lemon juice, olive oil and lots of garlic. Bakes in 15 mins!

Provided by Suzy Karadsheh

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:

  • Select the freshest cod fillets available, as this will greatly impact the flavor and texture of the dish.
  • Make sure the cod fillets are thoroughly patted dry before baking, as this will help to ensure a crispy exterior and prevent the fish from steaming.
  • Use a generous amount of spices to give the cod fillets a bold and flavorful crust. Experiment with different spice combinations to find your favorite blend.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet, as this will prevent the cod fillets from cooking evenly. If necessary, bake the fillets in batches.
  • Bake the cod fillets until they are cooked through, but be careful not to overcook them, as this will make them dry and tough.
  • Serve the spicy baked cod fillets immediately with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

Spicy baked cod fillets are a quick, easy, and delicious way to enjoy this versatile fish. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying meal that is perfect for any occasion. So next time you're looking for a healthy and delicious seafood option, give this recipe a try!
