Prep: Preheat your oven to 375\u00b0F (190\u00b0C). Pat the cod fillets dry with paper towels\u2014this helps them crisp up nicely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. Saut\u00e9: Melt the butter and olive oil in an oven-safe skillet (cast iron works great!). Add the minced garlic and saut\u00e9 for about 30 seconds, until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. Season &amp; Bake: Season the cod fillets generously with salt and pepper. Place them in the skillet, nestled in the garlic butter. Pour the lemon juice over the cod. Sprinkle with lemon zest and half of the parsley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4. Bake: Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 12\u201315 minutes, or until the cod flakes easily with a fork (time will vary depending on thickness).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>5. Serve: Remove from the oven, spoon the buttery lemon sauce over the fish, and sprinkle with the remaining fresh parsley. Serve warm with your favorite sides.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sunshine Lemon Butter Cod (Serves 2)Ingredients:2 cod fillets (about 6 oz each)2 tablespoons butter1 tablespoon olive oil1 lemon, zested and&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1941,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1940","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-food"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
