Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cod fillets (about 6 ounces each)
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 lemon, zested and juiced
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat the cod fillets dry and season with salt and pepper.
- In a medium bowl, combine panko breadcrumbs, parsley, basil, garlic, lemon zest, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
- Place the cod fillets on a baking sheet and evenly distribute the herb mixture over each fillet, pressing gently.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cod is cooked through and the crust is golden brown.
Notes
- Use fresh herbs for optimal flavor.
- Avoid overbaking to keep the cod moist.
- Experiment with different herbs and add variations like Parmesan for a unique twist.
- For extra flavor, marinate the cod in lemon juice and olive oil before applying the crust.
