Ingredients
- 3/4 cup panko bread crumbs
- 1/4 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
- 1 1/2 teaspoons lemon zest
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 four ounce cod fillets
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, combine the panko, parmesan cheese, lemon zest, garlic powder, parsley, salt and pepper. Add the olive oil and toss to combine.
- Arrange the cod fillets on the baking sheet and season all over with salt and pepper. Divide the panko topping among the fillets, pressing lightly so that it adheres.
- Place in the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the topping is lightly browned and the fish is mostly opaque (just cooked through), with a trace of translucence in the center (cut into a piece to check). Cooking time will depend on the thickness of the fillets. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Depending on how much topping you use for each fillet, you may find that you have some extra topping leftover. You can either sprinkle it on any vegetables you serve the fish with, or save the remaining topping to sprinkle on chicken or salmon later that week. It's delicious on both!
- Leftover fish can be stored in the fridge for up to four days.
