Course: Main Course

Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs Cod

  • Salt + pepper to taste
  • 1 Lemon - divided
  • 1 tsp Parsley

Instructions

  • Set oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Line baking baking sheet with parchment paper, and brush 2T ghee (or other fat like olive or avocado oil) on the parchment paper
  • Pat cod with paper towel to remove excess moisture
  • Place cod on top of fat of choice, sprinkle with parsley, salt and pepper
  • Squeeze juice of 1 lemon over the fish, and thinly slice the other half and place on top while baking
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes depending on size of fillet. You want to see the meat look opague and start to flake- that’s how you know it’s done - this piece was in for 15 minutes
