Herb-Crusted Baked Cod with Lemon Butter Sauce
Savor the delicate flavor of cod baked to perfection with a crisp herb crust, accented by a zesty lemon butter sauce. This dish marries light, flaky fish with a burst of fresh herbs and a tangy, buttery drizzle for a refreshing meal that fits perfectly into a balanced lifestyle.
INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Cod Fillet
1/4 cup Panko Breadcrumbs
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley (chopped)
1 tsp Fresh Thyme (chopped)
1 Garlic Clove (minced)
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Unsalted Butter
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs, chopped parsley, thyme, and minced garlic. Drizzle in 1 tsp of olive oil and mix well.
Season the cod fillet with salt and pepper. Press the herb and breadcrumb mixture firmly onto the top side of the fillet to form a crust.
Place the cod fillet on the baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
While the cod bakes, prepare the lemon butter sauce. In a small saucepan over low heat, melt 1 tsp of unsalted butter and then stir in the lemon juice. Warm gently and stir continuously to combine.
Once the cod is done, drizzle the lemon butter sauce over the fillet and serve immediately with an extra sprinkle of fresh herbs if desired.
