PANKO PARMESAN BAKED COD RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F, and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easiest clean up.
• In a small bowl combine Panko, parmesan cheese, lemon zest, garlic, parsley, salt and pepper. Add olive oil (or melted butter) and combine breadcrumbs until moist.
• Place cod fillets on baking sheet, dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Divide the parmesan topping evenly onto each fillet, pressing to adhere to fish.
• Bake for 12-14 minutes until the fish is opaque and just cooked through and flakes easily when cut into with a fork. Topping will be golden brown. Cooking time depends on the thickness of the filets. Be careful not to overcook as fish will turn out tough.
• Meanwhile, make browned butter lemon garlic sauce if desired. Place butter in small saucepan over medium heat, melt butter, until it foams, swirling until it starts to brown and has a nutty aroma. Stir in garlic and saute for 30-60 seconds, then remove from heat and stir in lemon juice, salt and pepper. Set aside until serving with fish.
• To serve fish, using a spatula, carefully remove fish from pan to plate, drizzle with a little browned butter lemon sauce and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley. Serve with rice, mashed potatoes, asparagus, broccoli, brussels sprouts or a salad.
