Chef's Note

For the crispiest crust, make sure to pat the cod completely dry before coating. If you have a few extra minutes, letting the breaded fish rest in the refrigerator for 5-10 minutes before baking helps the coating adhere better.

  • 8 oz cod fillet

  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Instructions
  • 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Dip the cod fillet in the beaten egg, then coat with the parmesan-breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
