Notes
- Don’t overcook the fish: Keep an eye on the cod as it cooks. If it stays in the oven too long the breadcrumbs will burn and the fish will become dry.
- Make it ahead: Meal prep and make a batch of baked cod with breadcrumbs and store them in the freezer. Thaw throughout the week for lunch or an easy dinner option.
- Spray the fish: For an extra crispy result, lightly spray the tops of the cod filet with oil spray.
