INGREDIENTS
- 1 pound fresh cod, cut into 4 fillets
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley, plus more for garnish
- 1 tablespoon fresh chopped chives
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1 teaspoon fresh chopped oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
INSTRUCTIONS
- Begin by preheating your oven to 450 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
- Next, lay the cod fillets onto several layers of paper towel. Lay several more layers on top and gently push down onto each fillet with the palm of your hand. Don’t push so hard that you flatten the cod. The goal here is to push out some of the excess moisture. The paper towels will absorb the water content. Discard the paper towels.
- Transfer the cod to the prepared baking sheet, leaving at least two inches of space between each fillet.
- Next, measure the mayonnaise, parmesan cheese, garlic, parsley, chive, thyme, oregano, and ground black pepper into a mixing bowl. Use a whisk to blend the ingredients together.
- Spoon the mixture evenly over the four cod fillets. Use the back of the spoon to smooth out the mayo mixture so that the top of each fillet is evenly covered.
- Bake in the preheated oven for twelve minutes.
- If the mayonnaise mixture has not browned to your liking, you can place the fish under your broiler for a minute, but watch it carefully, because it will burn.
- Garnish with more parsley and herbs, if desired. Serve immediately.
