Each perfectly prepared filet promises an exceptional dining experience, highlighting the delicate, flaky texture of the cod that simply melts in your mouth.

Beyond its flavor contributions, the vibrant green dill also adds a touch of visual elegance, transforming a simple weeknight dinner into a dish worthy of a special occasion. Preparing this cod is surprisingly simple, making it an accessible option for cooks of all skill levels. The recipe focuses on techniques that preserve the cod’s moisture and tenderness, ensuring that each bite is as enjoyable as the last.

Serve it alongside your favorite roasted vegetables, a crisp green salad, or a bed of fluffy rice for a complete and satisfying meal. The versatility of this dish makes it a wonderful addition to any menu, perfect for a light lunch or an elegant dinner party.

Instructions

    1.
    Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Lightly spray a baking dish that closely fits the size of your fish fillets. Place the cod fillets in the prepared dish and season evenly with salt and pepper.
    2.
    Melt the butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Finely chop the fresh dill and garlic, then stir them into the melted butter until well combined. Brush half of this flavorful butter mixture generously over the fish fillets.
    3.
    Cover the baking dish loosely with aluminum foil, ensuring there's a vent for steam to escape. Bake the fish in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, allowing it to cook through gently.
    4.
    Remove the baking dish from the oven. Brush the remaining dill-butter mixture over the cooked fish. Place the uncovered dish under the broiler and cook until the garlic begins to brown slightly and the edges of the fish start to caramelize, approximately 5 to 10 minutes. Watch closely to prevent burning.
    5.
    Serve the baked cod immediately with lemon wedges for squeezing over the fish. The lemon adds a bright, citrusy note that complements the dill-infused butter sauce. Enjoy your expertly prepared cod!
