Perfect Baked Cod
Ingredients
- 4 cod filets, about 1-inch thick
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 4 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for baking dish
- 1 c. cherry tomatoes
- 1 lemon, sliced, plus more for garnish
- 2 garlic cloves, smashed but not peeled
- 2 sprigs thyme
- 2 tbsp. freshly chopped parsley, for garnish
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 400° and pat cod filets with a paper towel until dry. Season all over with salt and pepper.
-
Combine olive oil, cherry tomatoes, lemon slices, garlic, and thyme in a 9"-x-13" baking dish. Toss to coat and spread into an even layer.
-
Nestle cod pieces into baking dish.
-
Bake until fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, 15 to 20 minutes, depending on thickness of filets. Serve garnished with parsley, more lemon juice, and pan sauce.
Notes
Storage
Cooked cod can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for 4 days or in the freezer for 1 month, but keep in mind that the texture will change a bit with freezer storage. I recommend reheating it in an oven at a low temperature.
