Baked Cod

With us in the middle of the pre-Easter season, allow me to share a Victorian Lenten recipe - baked cod!

Big thanks to Victoria Gourmet for the recipe!

Ingredients

4 tablespoons flour

4 tablespoons, divided  Seafood Seasoning

1 1/2 pounds fresh cod, cut into 2 inch pieces (hake or tilapia can be substituted)

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

1 can (28 ounces) diced tomatoes

2 tablespoons lemon juice

‍

Directions

1.In a shallow bowl (I prefer pie plate) mix the flour with 2 tablespoons of the Seafood Seasoning. Dredge the cod into the flour mixture.

2. In a large skillet over medium high heat, cook the oil and butter to hot but not smoking.

3. Gently add the seasoned cod into the hot skillet. Cook for 4 minutes or until golden brown. Flip and cook for another 4 minutes.

4. In a bowl combine the tomatoes, lemon juice, and remaining 2 tablespoons Seafood Seasoning. Pour over the fish. Cook for 5-7 minutes or until fish flakes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
