  • 2 pounds Cod

Instructions
 

Prepare Ingredients

  • Cut a fillet of cod into 2-4 pieces, or use 4 pieces of captain's cut cod
  • Mince the garlic cloves
  • Put a stick of butter in a microwave safe cup or small bowl. Add the garlic cloves to the butter and heat until butter is melted.

Cooking Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees

  • Pour the melted butter with garlic over the cod.
  • Sprinkle seasoned bread crumbs over the buttered cod.
  • Bake for 20 minutes

Notes

This recipe is just as good on haddock, scrod or sole as it is with cod. The garlic butter sauce, added before baking, could be used on any fish or even when baking shrimp or scallops. Use seasoned or unseasoned bread crumbs according to taste.
