Chef's Note

For the crispiest crust, make sure to pat the cod completely dry before adding the Parmesan mixture. If you prefer a more golden top, you can broil the fish for the last minute of cooking, but watch it carefully to prevent burning.

Ingredients
  • 8 oz cod fillet

  • 3 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese

  • 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs

  • 1 small lemon

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder

  • 1 tsp dried parsley

  • 1/4 tsp salt

  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

  • 1 cup brown rice

  • 1 cup broccoli florets

  • 1 tsp butter

Instructions
  • 1

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

  • 2

    Cook 1 cup of brown rice according to package instructions (typically 1 cup rice to 2 cups water, simmered for 15-20 minutes).

  • 3

    Pat 8 oz cod fillet dry with paper towels and place on the prepared baking sheet.

  • 4

    In a small bowl, mix 3 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese, 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp dried parsley, 1/4 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper.

  • 5

    Brush 1 tbsp olive oil over the cod fillet, then press the Parmesan mixture firmly onto the top of the fish.

  • 6

    Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until fish flakes easily with a fork and the crust is golden brown.

  • 7

    While the fish is baking, steam 1 cup broccoli florets for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.

  • 8

    Toss the steamed broccoli with 1 tsp butter and a pinch of salt.

  • 9

    Slice half of the small lemon into wedges for serving and squeeze the juice from the other half over the cooked fish.

  • 10

    Serve the Parmesan crusted cod with brown rice and broccoli on the side, with lemon wedges for additional flavor.
