Ingredients

2 x 180g/6oz pieces of cod loin
2 tbsp fresh white breadcrumbs
2 tbsp chopped fresh herbs (such as a mixture of chervil, chives, parsley, coriander) - optional
1 clove garlic, crushed finely
2 tbsp olive oil
salt and freshly ground black pepper
140g/5oz new potatoes, any large ones cut in half
160g/6oz fresh or frozen peas

Steps:

Heat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6.
Mix together the herbs (if using), garlic and oil. Stir in the breadcrumbs and season with salt and pepper. Put the fish on a baking sheet and spread the breadcrumb mixture over the fish. Bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes until the flesh becomes opaque and flakes easily.
Boil the potatoes in a large pan of water for 12-15 minutes, until cooked through. Boil the peas in a separate pan of water for a few minutes until just cooked. Take the cod out of the oven and serve with the potatoes and peas.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

Good olive oil
4 center-cut boneless, skinless cod fillets (6 to 8 ounces each)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup Ritz cracker crumbs (15 crackers; see Cook's Note)
1/3 cup panko (Japanese bread flakes)
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
2 teaspoons minced garlic (2 cloves)
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup dry white wine, such as Pinot Grigio
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
Lemon wedges, for serving

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.

Cod is one of my favorite fish, and we get such wonderful, fresh and inexpensive cod here in Rhode Island. I think the touch of lemon zest in the crust adds a nice lemony flavor mixed in with the breadcrumbs.

Tips:

Choose fresh cod fillets. Look for fillets that are firm to the touch and have a mild, fresh smell. Avoid fillets that are slimy or have a strong fishy odor.
Pat the cod fillets dry before cooking. This will help the herb crust adhere to the fish and prevent it from becoming soggy.
Use a variety of fresh herbs in the crust. This will give the fish a more complex flavor. Some good options include parsley, thyme, rosemary, and oregano.
Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices and seasonings. In addition to the herbs, you can also add a little salt, pepper, garlic powder, or onion powder to the crust.
Roast the cod at a high temperature. This will help to create a crispy crust and prevent the fish from becoming dry.
Serve the cod immediately. Roasted cod is best enjoyed hot out of the oven.

Conclusion:

Oven-roasted cod crusted with herbs is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The crispy herb crust adds a lot of flavor to the mild cod, and the fish cooks quickly in the oven. This dish is also a good source of protein and omega-3 fatty acids. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
