Dill-Seasoned Baked Cod: A Delicious and Healthy Seafood Dish
Looking for a healthy and delicious seafood dish that's easy to make? Try our Dill-Seasoned Baked Cod recipe! This dish is perfect for those who want to enjoy a flavorful and nutritious meal without spending too much time in the kitchen.
Ingredients (serves 4):
- 4 cod fillets (about 6 oz each)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
Cooking Tips:
- Make sure to pat the cod fillets dry with paper towels before seasoning them. This will help the seasoning stick better and prevent the fish from becoming too watery.
- If you don't have fresh dill, you can use dried dill instead. Just use half the amount called for in the recipe.
- For a crispier crust, you can broil the cod for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking.
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F.
2. In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, dill, garlic powder, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
3. Place the cod fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
4. Brush the seasoning mixture over the top of each fillet, making sure to coat them evenly.
5. Bake the cod for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
6. Serve the Dill-Seasoned Baked Cod hot, garnished with fresh dill and lemon wedges.
Appearance and Taste:
This dish is a beautiful golden brown color with flecks of green dill throughout. The aroma of the garlic and lemon is mouth-watering, and the taste is light and refreshing. The dill adds a subtle herbaceous flavor that complements the mild sweetness of the cod perfectly.
