Parmesan-Crusted Cod Fillets image

Cod fillets are one of our favorites; covered with Panko crumbs and baked gives them a crunch topping and tender, flaky fish inside. I serve this with the julienned carrots and also with spinach I've lightly sauteed in a little bit of olive oil over medium-low heat and cooked for about 2 minutes.

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 lbs skinless cod fish fillets (4)
1/3 cup Japanese-style bread crumbs (Panko)
1/4 cup finely shredded parmesan cheese
1 lb fresh carrot, julienned
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
mixed fresh salad greens, if desired (As noted above, I use spinach)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  • Peel the carrots and julienne enough to make 3 cups; cover and set aside.
  • Lightly coat a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. Rinse and pat dry fish and place on baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper.
  • In small bowl stir together Panko crumbs and cheese; sprinkle and lightly press onto fish. Bake, uncovered, 4-6 minutes for each 1/2-inch thickness of fish, until crumbs are golden and fish flakes easily when tested with a fork.
  • Meanwhile, in a large skillet, bring 1/2 cup water to boiling; add carrots. Reduce heat and cook, covered, for 5 minutes. Uncover; cook 2 minutes more. Add butter and ginger; toss. Serve fish and carrots with greens.
