Chef's Note

For the crispiest crust, make sure to pat the cod completely dry before coating. If you have a few extra minutes, you can refrigerate the breaded fish for 15 minutes before baking to help the coating adhere better.

Ingredients
  • 8 oz cod fillet

  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

  • 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1/2 whole lemon

  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

  • 3/4 cup brown rice

  • 1 cup broccoli florets

  • 1 teaspoon butter

Instructions
  • 1

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

  • 2

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

  • 3

    In a shallow dish, mix 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese, 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon dried parsley, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.

  • 4

    Brush the cod fillet with 1 tablespoon olive oil on both sides.

  • 5

    Press the cod into the parmesan mixture, coating both sides and pressing gently to adhere.

  • 6

    Place the coated fish on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, until the fish flakes easily with a fork and the coating is golden brown.

  • 7

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

  • 8

    Steam 1 cup broccoli florets for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.

  • 9

    Toss the cooked broccoli with 1 teaspoon butter and a pinch of salt.

  • 10

    Squeeze juice from half a lemon over the baked cod before serving.

  • 11

    Serve the parmesan crusted cod with brown rice and broccoli on the side.
