Simple, fast, and delicious describes this baked cod recipe. Bake for two sets of 10 minutes each and you have the perfect ten dinner! This recipe was a favorite request from a local restaurant. They closed after years in business and we are happy to share a version of their most requested recipe. I serve this with rice pilaf and fresh spinach that has been lightly seared in olive oil and garlic. Yummy!

BAKED COD WITH OLIVES
The olive topping on our cod was inspired by tapenade; it includes olives, anchovies, capers, olive oil, and lemon juice. Use a ceramic or glass baking dish; an aluminum dish could react with the acidic lemon juice and discolor the fish.

HERB-ROASTED FISH
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Pour 2 tablespoons olive oil in a 9 x 9-inch ceramic baking dish (it should be just big enough to hold the fish) and tilt the dish to coat the bottom with oil. Place the fish fillets in the dish and turn to coat both sides with the oil. Sprinkle the fish with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and bake for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine the cracker crumbs, panko, parsley, garlic, lemon zest, and 1 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Add the melted butter and stir until evenly moistened. Set aside.
- Remove the fish from the oven and pour the wine and lemon juice directly on the fillets. Pat the crumb mixture evenly onto the fillets, pressing gently to help them adhere. (Don't worry if some crumbs get into the sauce!)
- Return the pan to the oven for 12 minutes, until the fillets are just cooked through in the center, depending on the thickness of the fish. Sprinkle with salt and serve hot with the pan juices and lemon wedges.
FISH WITH SIZZLING OLIVE BUTTER
Sizzling butter is an excellent base for several classic sauces for fish, including amandine and meunière. Here, garlic, sliced olives (try a mix of green and black), fennel seeds and lime juice are thrown into the pan, adding tangy, bright and aromatic flavors. You can use this sauce for any kind of fish, whether pearly fillets of cod or meaty tuna or salmon. It even works with shrimp and chicken breasts. After all, there are few things that aren't improved by a drizzle of garlicky melted butter. Serve this over rice or with crusty bread to catch all that butter.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Heat a large, oven-safe skillet over medium. Add butter and oil, and cook until butter melts and starts to sizzle, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in olives, garlic and fennel or coriander, and cook until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Season fish fillets with salt and pepper, then nestle them in one layer in the skillet. Carefully spoon some of the butter mixture over the fish, basting the fillets, then transfer pan to the oven.
- Bake until fish is opaque and flaky, 8 to 13 minutes, basting halfway through. Remove from oven and transfer fillets to serving plates.
- Squeeze a wedge or two of lime into the butter mixture and spoon sauce over fish. Top with black pepper, cilantro and dill, with extra lime wedges on the side for squeezing.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make your cod dish even more delicious. Look for firm, flaky cod fillets and plump, briny olives.
- Don't overcook the cod. Cod is a delicate fish that can easily become tough and dry if it's overcooked. Cook it just until it flakes easily with a fork.
- Use a variety of olives. There are many different types of olives available, so feel free to experiment. Kalamata olives, Castelvetrano olives, and Niçoise olives are all good options.
- Add some herbs and spices. Herbs and spices can help to enhance the flavor of the cod and olives. Try adding some thyme, rosemary, basil, or oregano.
- Serve the cod with a simple sauce. A simple sauce can help to bring all the flavors of the dish together. Try a lemon-butter sauce, a white wine sauce, or a tomato sauce.
Conclusion:
Stuffed olive cod is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal. It's also a great way to use up leftover olives. With its tender, flaky cod, briny olives, and flavorful sauce, this dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
