Ingredients

  • 4 (4 ounce) cod fillets

  • 1 pinch salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

  • ½ cup warm water

  • ½ fish bouillon cube

  • ¾ cup dry bread crumbs

  • ¼ cup butter, cut into small chunks

  • 1 bunch fresh parsley, chopped

  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill

  • 2 teaspoons dried tarragon

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lay cod fillets in a baking dish and season lightly with salt and pepper.

  2. Combine water and fish bouillon cube in a bowl. Stir to combine and pour over cod.

  3. Mix bread crumbs, butter, parsley, dill, tarragon, salt, and pepper in a bowl with a fork until crumbly. Sprinkle evenly over cod.

Cook's Note:

Substitute 1 teaspoon dried dill for the fresh dill if desired.
