  1. To prepare the Baked Breaded Cod, start by placing the fish fillets in a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Using a brush, drizzle the cod with extra virgin olive oil and season its surface with salt and pepper to taste, gently massaging the seasoning into the fish.
  2. In a bowl, combine breadcrumbs, salt, pepper, finely chopped parsley, and half a grated garlic clove. Add half a tablespoon of oil, white wine, juice of half a lemon, and its zest. Mix everything with a spoon until you get a sandy texture. Cover the fish fillets thoroughly with this mixture and bake in a preheated fan-forced oven at 200°C (392°F) for about fifteen minutes or until golden brown.
  3. Once ready, remove your Baked Breaded Cod from the oven, let it cool slightly, and transfer it to a serving plate. Garnish with a couple of lemon slices and fresh parsley sprigs, making sure to serve the dish while still hot. Finally, remember to download our App with exclusive content and fewer ads!
