This basic recipe can be modified to whatever you have on hand! It is simple yet can change flavor with orange zest, for example - use fresh herbs whenever possible as the flavor is enhanced. A delicate jasmine or basmati rice, with some green onions, make a flavorful and easy to serve side. Be creative and try it! Panko is so easy to work with.

Extremely easy to prepare and cook. A great week night recipe. I added a zesty salad seasoning instead of lemon zest. It was delicious! For an added touch I sauteed mixed greens in olive oil, and garlic and let them simmer in vegetable broth. I topped the Cod with a small serving of the greens.

This was just "ok"... Seemed like it needed something. Sort of bland and uninteresting. Made a skillet mac and cheese dish and steamed veggies which is some of our favs but it just didn't help. My husband liked it but I probably won't make it again. Will look for something better. sorry
