Baked Cod

We like cod…even though it is fairly expensive; we keep some on hand in the freezer all the time.  When I saw this little different baked cod recipe it was a no-brainer to try it.  And we weren't sorry – we liked the seasoning and green onions.  Baked fish couldn't be easier to prepare, making it easy for a busy weeknight.

Baked Cod

     ½    Cup  Butter -- melted

     ¼    Cup  Lemon Juice

     ¼    Cup  Green Onion -- chopped

  2        Tablespoons  Water

     ½    Teaspoon  Dill Weed

     ½    Teaspoon  Garlic Salt

  1        Pound  Cod Fillets -- serving size pieces

            Lemon Pepper

            Lemon Slices

            Dill Sprigs -- optional

In an ungreased 11 x 7 x 2" baking dish, combine the butter, lemon juice, onions, water, dill and garlic salt.  Add fish fillets, turn to coat.

Cover and refrigerate for one hour.  Loosely cover, and bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.  Sprinkle with lemon pepper and garnish with lemon and dill if desired.
