Baked Cod with Olives image

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.

I'm not a big fan of cod, but this dish was actually really good. The cod was cooked perfectly and the olives added a nice salty flavor. I would definitely make this again.

I made this dish with tilapia instead of cod and it turned out great. The tilapia was cooked perfectly and the olives added a nice salty flavor. I would definitely make this again.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. The cod was cooked perfectly, but the olives didn't add much flavor. I would probably add some more seasonings next time.
