BAKED STUFFED COD

This foolproof recipe for moist and flaky baked cod fillets is topped with a mixture of buttered fresh breadcrumbs, garlic, and chopped parsley.

Provided by Lynne Webb

Categories     Seafood

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 to 1-1/4 lbs cod fillets (about 1 inch thick (see notes for substitutions))
4 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice (divided)
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (divided)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons butter
3 cloves garlic (minced)
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
3/4 cup fresh breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F and thoroughly coat a baking dish with nonstick spray and add the cod fillets.
  • Try to choose a dish that will accommodate your fish in a single layer with little or no room left over. If your fillets have thin portions (as most do), it's a good idea to overlap them a bit to keep the thickness somewhat uniform.
  • Drizzle the fish with 1 tablespoon each of the lemon juice and olive oil, then season lightly with salt and pepper.
  • In a separate skillet, heat the remaining olive oil together with the butter over medium heat.
  • Add the garlic and crushed red pepper and sauté just until garlic begins to turn golden (do not brown).
  • Remove from the heat, stir in the remaining lemon juice, breadcrumbs and parsley.
  • Spread the crumb mixture evenly over the fish and bake for 12 to 14 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily.
  • Serve immediately (this dish is served casserole-style - you don't have to portion out individual fillets).

BAKED COD WITH OLIVES



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.

EASY PAN-SEARED COD WITH LEMON, OLIVES AND CAPERS



Easy Pan-Seared Cod with Lemon, Olives and Capers image

A southern Mediterranean recipe for pan-seared fish, with bright, assertive flavors!

Provided by Marilena Leavitt

Categories     Seafood Main

Time 14m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 pieces of cod, ¾"- 1" thick, (about 6 oz. each)
--- sea salt and freshly ground pepper
2-3 TBSP. olive oil (or, neutral oil)
½ medium lemon (zested and sliced)
1 garlic clove, finely minced
6 olives, black and green, chopped
1 TBSP. small capers, rinsed and dried
2 TBSP. tender celery leaves (or parsley)

Steps:

  • Pat dry the fish fillets very well, then season them generously with salt and pepper and set them aside.
  • In a small bowl, combine the garlic, olives, and capers.
  • Zest the lemon and cut it into thin slices
  • Set a large skillet over medium-high heat. It should be large enough to accommodate the fish and the lemon slices. Add the olive oil and, when it gets hot, carefully lower the two fish fillets into the pan and reduce the heat to medium. Using a fish spatula, gently press the fillets against the skillet ensuring that the whole side of the fish is in contact with the heat (this is important especially when cooking fish with the skin still on - it ensures crispy skin). Let the fish cook for about three minutes and then shake the skillet gently to check if the fish releases from the pan. If it does not, let it cook for another 30 seconds (when the fillets form a crust, they will easily release from the pan). Flip the fish to the uncooked side, then add the lemon slices to the pan around the fillets. Cook the fish for two minutes more (the cooking time depends on the thickness of the fish and how well you want the fish cooked). With a fork, check the flesh of the fish to make sure it flakes easily. Flip the slices of lemon. Add the garlic mixture to the skillet and cook for another 30 seconds.
  • Transfer the fish to two plates and spoon the mixture of olives and capers over the fish. Sprinkle the fillets with the reserved lemon zest and celery leaves. Serve with extra lemon on the side.

Tips:

  • Select the freshest cod fillets. Look for fillets that are firm and have a mild, briny aroma. Avoid fillets that are slimy or have a strong fishy smell.
  • Use a variety of olives. Kalamata olives, green olives, and black olives all add different flavors and textures to the dish. You can also use a mix of different types of olives.
  • Don't overstuff the cod fillets. The stuffing should be flavorful, but it shouldn't overpower the cod. Aim to fill each fillet with about 1 tablespoon of stuffing.
  • Cook the cod fillets until they are just cooked through. Cod is a delicate fish, so it's important to avoid overcooking it. The fillets should be opaque and flaky when they are done.
  • Serve the cod fillets immediately. Stuffed cod fillets are best served hot, so make sure to serve them as soon as they are cooked.

Conclusion:

Stuffed cod fillets are a delicious and elegant main course that is perfect for a special occasion. The combination of flaky cod, flavorful stuffing, and briny olives is sure to impress your guests. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make this dish at home.
