Technique to learn

Gratinated Baking

Baking protein under a buttered breadcrumb coating so the top crisps into a crust while keeping the fish moist.

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) and lightly brush a baking dish with olive oil.

Step 2: Pat cod fillets completely dry with paper towels and arrange in a single layer in the baking dish.

Step 3: In a medium bowl, combine panko breadcrumbs, melted unsalted butter, English mustard, chopped parsley, lemon zest, and garlic powder.

Step 4: Divide the crumb mixture evenly over each cod fillet, pressing down lightly so the crust adheres to the top.

Step 5: Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes until the breadcrumbs are golden brown and the fish flakes easily with a fork.

Cooking tips

Thoroughly dry the fish before adding crumbs to ensure the crust bakes crisp instead of steamed.
A quick squeeze of fresh lemon juice just before eating cuts through the butter crispiness nicely.
