GREEK BAKED COD RECIPE WITH LEMON AND GARLIC

Following the Mediterranean diet, fish is kinda essential for my family. It’s about the one food that shows abreast of the menu twice hebdomadally .

Sometimes, our fish dinners go far–as far as a stew from Sicily or an Egyptian-inspired fish Shakshuka cooked during a tasty spaghetti sauce . But more often than not, I choose something simple like steamed salmon or today’s baked cod recipe with lemon and garlic.

INGREDIENTS :

• 5 garlic cloves, peeled and minced
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley leaves
• 1.5 lb Cod fillet pieces (4–6 pieces)

Lemon Juice Mixture :

• 5 tbsp Private Reserve extra virgin olive oil
• 5 tbsp fresh lemon juice
• 2 tbsp melted butter

For Coating :

• 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp ground coriander 
• 3/4 tsp sweet Spanish paprika
• 3/4 tsp ground cumin
• 3/4 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper

INSTRUCTIONS :

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2. Mix lemon juice, olive oil, and melted butter in a shallow bowl. Set aside
3. In another shallow bowl, mix all-purpose flour, spices, salt and pepper. Set next to the lemon juice mixture.
4. Pat fish fillet dry. Dip fish in the lemon juice mixture then dip in the flour mixture. Shake off excess flour.
5. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat (watch the oil to be sure it is sizzling but not smoking). Add fish and sear on each side to give it some color, but do not fully cook (about a couple minutes on each side) Remove from heat.
6. To the remaining lemon juice mixture, add the minced garlic and mix. Drizzle all over the fish fillets.
7. Bake in the heated oven for until it begins to flake easily with a fork (10 minutes should do it, but begin checking earlier). Remove from heat and sprinkle chopped parsley.
8. Serving suggestions: Serve immediately with Lebanese rice and this Mediterranean chickpea salad or this traditional Greek salad.
