CRAB TOPPED " COD"-STER



Crab Topped

I combined two different recipes and tweaked here and there. I can't remember where they originally came from. The cod will taste just like lobster! It melts in your mouth. This is a family favorite and ask for it every week. This is not a low-calorie dish so beware!!

Time 25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 cod fish fillets (not necessary to thaw if using frozen)
6 cups water
1 1/4 cups sugar
2 tablespoons salt
1/2 cup butter, plus
6 tablespoons butter, melted
1 tablespoon finely minced onion (I use flakes if I have to)
1/3 cup minced crabmeat (I used canned)
1/2 tablespoon dried parsley or 1 tablespoon finely minced fresh parsley
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon dill weed (barely a smidgen in my book)
12 garlic butter flavored Ritz crackers, crushed
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/8-1/4 cup grated parmesan-romano cheese mix

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Dissolve the sugar and salt in the water then pour over the cod fillets in a large saucepan.
  • Bring to a boil (which may take a while if using frozen fillets).
  • Boil 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Scoop fish out and drain very well, blotting as necessary.
  • Place in a baking dish and brush with 6 Tbs of melted butter (must be the real cahoona, not margarine).
  • While the fish comes to boiling point I start on the topping.
  • Melt the rest of the butter in a saucepan and add the onion, sauté for 1 minute.
  • Add the crab, parsley, dill, garlic powder and a touch of salt and pepper.
  • Stir for 1 minute.
  • Remove from the heat and add your crushed crackers.
  • I top the buttered fillets with this mixture (you may want to use your hands to pile it high if your fillets are chunky); sprinkle with a little more melted butter and the lemon juice.
  • Sprinkle with parmesan to taste.
  • Place in oven until topping is slightly brown.

CRAB-TOPPED FISH FILLETS

These fillets are elegant enough for company but truly no trouble to make. Fish is abundant here in South Florida, and we like to get together with friends in the afternoon, so I often need to whip up a quick dinner when we get home. This special dish is one of my husband's favorites. -Mary Tuthill, Fort Myers Beach, Florida
