DAD'S BAKED STUFFED COD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450F Find baking dish large enough to hold fish with space around it (if fish is crowded into too small a pan, the pieces of fish touching each other or the sides of the pan, fish will poach and not bake) Butter baking dish; Arrange bottom fillets in dish. (Top fillets should be same size) Fold thinner tail ends over until they approximate thicker part of fillets. Saute onions in a tbspn butter until translucent; add mushrooms; sauté until they shrink somewhat. Add breadcrumbs until there is enough stuffing to cover bottom fillet about 1/4" to 3/8", continue sauteing until crumbs are slightly browned. Add parsley, pepper, thyme. Add enough cream until mixture sticks together but is not wet. Mix well over heat. Put the stuffing mixture on the bottom fillet; add top layer of cod; toothpick layers together. Dot top of fish with butter. Add a film of water to bottom of baking dish (1/16th" or less) Cover dish with foil for the first 8 minutes of baking to keep fish moist. Remove foil and continue baking - total baking time will be about 10 minutes for each 1" of total thickness of fish with stuffing. Test with fork. If fork easily goes through both layers of fish, fish is done. Love, Dad

BAKED STUFFED COD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F and thoroughly coat a baking dish with nonstick spray and add the cod fillets.
• Try to choose a dish that will accommodate your fish in a single layer with little or no room left over. If your fillets have thin portions (as most do), it's a good idea to overlap them a bit to keep the thickness somewhat uniform.
• Drizzle the fish with 1 tablespoon each of the lemon juice and olive oil, then season lightly with salt and pepper.
• In a separate skillet, heat the remaining olive oil together with the butter over medium heat.
• Add the garlic and crushed red pepper and sauté just until garlic begins to turn golden (do not brown).
• Remove from the heat, stir in the remaining lemon juice, breadcrumbs and parsley.
• Spread the crumb mixture evenly over the fish and bake for 12 to 14 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily.
• Serve immediately (this dish is served casserole-style - you don't have to portion out individual fillets).

CHEESY BAKED STUFFED COD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Spray a baking pan with non-stick cooking spray and place the fish fillets (or pieces) in pan. Season the fish with salt and pepper. Place the slices of Muenster cheese evenly over the fish.
• Crush crackers into a medium-size bowl (Helpful tip: Crush them right in the sleeve and then pour into the bowl). Add in the lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic powder, white pepper, parsley flakes, paprika, Worcestershire sauce and melted butter. Mix to combine.
• Gently pile cracker mixture over fish. Try to leave the stuffing loose and not packed down.
• Pour milk around fish but not over. Place lemon wedges in milk next to fish.
• Cover with a piece of parchment paper and then cover with foil, sealing tightly around the edges.
• Bake covered for 15 minutes, then remove the parchment and foil and bake uncovered for five more minutes. (Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of your fish. Fish is done when it flakes apart with a fork.)
