Pecan Crusted Cod #SundaySupper

We live in the land of Cod here on the Gulf of Maine. Well, not the land of Cod … you know what I mean.

While Cod has been over fished to the point near extinction, a small bit of Cod fishing is still allowed in the Gulf. And every once in a while our fish monger has beautiful, locally caught Cod. Nothing comes close to fresh Cod. There is no substitute.

But, how do you do it justice. Fried is just not the way. And you get tired of cooking the same things the same way all the time. Then I came across this recipe! This recipe is adapted from one I saw on Honest Cooking – very lightly adapted. It was so great just the way it was done I only changed a couple of things.

Finding fresh Cod coincided perfectly with this week’s Sunday Supper, hosted by Claire McEwen at Sprinkles and Sprouts. The theme – Best Sunday Supper Seafood Recipes.

Enjoy and try to stop by the other fabulous blogs participating in this week’s Sunday Supper!

• ½ pound cod filets
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• ¼ cup loosely packed fresh parsley leaves, chopped
• 2 tablespoons chopped tarragon
• 1½ teaspoons lemon rind
• Dash of salt
• 2 tablespoons butter, melted
• ¼ cup chopped pecans
• 2 tablespoons breadcrumbs

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Place cod in a baking pan and drizzle with lemon juice.

In a bowl, mix parsley, lemon peel, breadcrumbs, walnuts salt and pepper. Add butter and stir until combined.

Spread about 2 tablespoons of pecan topping onto one side of the fish filets.

Bake 15 minutes or until cod flakes with a fork and crumbs are golden.
