Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 oz each) cod fillets
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0 (as needed for the baking dish) non-stick cooking spray
- 4 (for serving) lemon wedges
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking dish with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
Step 2
In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, olive oil, and lemon juice until smooth and well combined.
Step 3
In another bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs, chopped parsley, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Step 4
Pat the cod fillets dry with paper towels and place them in the prepared baking dish. Spread a generous layer of the Dijon mustard mixture on top of each fillet.
Step 5
Sprinkle the panko breadcrumb mixture evenly over the top of the cod fillets, pressing gently to ensure it sticks.
Step 6
Bake the cod in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. The breadcrumb topping should be golden brown.
Step 7
Remove the dish from the oven and let the cod rest for 2-3 minutes. Serve the Dijon Baked Cod warm with lemon wedges on the side.
