Oven-baked cod with herb crust is one of my favorites when I want something light and flavorful for dinner. The herb mixture becomes crispy and gives the fish a delightful taste!
Pairing it with a creamy pea purée completes the dish. Are you ready for a Norwegian dinner adventure?
The dish is also simple to make, and you don’t need to be a master chef to prepare this tasty fish dinner.
Ingredients
- 600 g cod fillet
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 100 g breadcrumbs

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the cod fillets in a greased baking dish and brush them with olive oil. Sprinkle with a little salt and pepper.
2. In a bowl, mix the breadcrumbs, thyme, parsley, dill, and the melted butter. Spread the mixture evenly over the cod.
3. Bake the cod in the oven for about 20-25 minutes, until it is cooked through and the crust is golden and crispy.
