Cod with prosciutto and lentils is one of my favorite dinner party standbys. You can brush the cold cod fillets with a little melted butter and wrap them in the prosciutto a few hours before you want to cook them. Just let them sit in the fridge, and remember to bring them to room temperature before brushing with a little more butter and cooking. Arrange the lentils on a large dish, place the fish on top and garnish with some freshly chopped parsley if you wish.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with a nonstick liner or aluminum foil.
- Brush cod fillets with butter, and season with salt and pepper. Wrap each in a slice or two of prosciutto, leaving ends of fillets unwrapped. (If slices tear or are narrow, more than two may be used to wrap each fillet.) Brush with butter again, and place on baking sheet.
- Bake fish until firm and white at unwrapped ends, 10 to 12 minutes. Carefully remove from baking sheet, and, if desired, place each fillet on a bed of lentils.
