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.

Instructions
  • 1

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

    Rinse 8 oz cod fillet under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.

    While the fish is baking, cook 3/4 cup brown rice according to package instructions (typically 1 part rice to 2 parts water, simmered for about 15-20 minutes).
