Easy Lemon Baked Cod Fish

Today on The Stay At Home Chef I'm showing you how to make Easy Baked Codfish. This recipe is easy to make and you get this lemon garlic codfish that is super tasty. To start preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and lightly grease a small baking dish. Just place your codfish portions directly down into the prepared pan. Then we're going to season each of our codfish portions with a little bit of salt and black pepper. Set that aside and we're going to put together a lemon garlic topping that makes this codfish super delicious. You'll need 1 1⁄4 cup of softened butter in a mixing bowl. You just want to make sure that butter is super soft at room temperature. Then you'll need 2 tablespoons of freshly grated parmesan cheese. Sprinkle that in along with 1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour, 3 cloves of minced garlic, then you'll need 1 teaspoon of dried basil, 1⁄2 teaspoon of onion powder, and then 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard. Last you'll need the juice from 1 lemon, which is about 1⁄4 cup. Pour that in. Then you'll want to take your spoon and mash that all together with the butter. It's kind of a weird clumpy mixture, but I promise this is super tasty. It should be a nice thick mixture and it's okay if it has these clumps of butter, because that butter will melt all over our fish as it bakes in the oven. Next you'll want to take large spoonfuls and scoop it directly on top of the codfish. You want to divide it up fairly evenly so that you use all of your butter mixture. You want each piece to get smothered with that buttery garlic lemon goodness. Then we're going to bake this in the 400 degree oven for about 10 minutes. Your actual cooking time will depend on the thickness and size of your codfish pieces, so if they're a little bit on the thick side you may want to add a few more minutes, and if they're on the thin side, well you want to decrease the time by a little bit too. Your fish is done when it flakes easily with a fork. Garnish it with some lemon slices and maybe a little bit of freshly chopped parsley for color, and you are ready to eat. Thanks for watching!
