This baked codfish recipe is so easy, we make it during our busy weeknights. We use a 1 to 1 1/2 pound fresh cod fillet, but you could also use other white fish, such as haddock. If you use a thinner fillet of fish, you’ll need to reduce the baking time so you don’t overcook the fish.
Here are the ingredients you’ll need:
- 1 to 1 1/2 pounds cod fillet
- Olive oil
- 1 Tablespoon mayonnaise
- 1/2 to 1 Tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- Approx. 2 Tablespoons of breadcrumbs
- 1 to 1 1/2 Tablespoons of melted butter
Here’s how to put it all together:
Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F.
- First I put foil in a large baking dish or cookie sheet. Sprinkle olive oil on the foil and lay the fish on top. Sprinkle a little more olive oil over the fish.
- Next, in a small bowl, combine and stir together the mayonnaise, lime juice, onion powder, and black pepper
- Spread the mixture over the fish
- Sprinkle with breadcrumbs and then drizzle the butter on top
- Bake uncovered at 425 degrees F. for about 20 minutes depending on the thickness of the fillet.
We usually have asparagus, fresh green beans with onions and bacon, or Brussels sprouts as a side dish. You’ll want this baked codfish recipe every week.
Enjoy!
