Perfect Baked Cod

 I'm not a true fan of most fish, but I do like Cod.  It tends to take on the flavor of what it's baked with.  This is my favorite baked Cod dish.

4 Cod filets, about 1" thick

Kosher salt

Freshly ground black pepper

4 Tbsp olive oil

1 cup of cocktail tomatoes, halved or quartered

1 lemon, sliced, plus zest

2 garlic cloves, smashed

4 thyme sprigs

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.

Pat Cod filets with paper towel until dry

Season all over with salt and pepper

Combine olive oil, tomatoes, lemon slices, garlic and thyme in a 9" x 13" baking dish

Bake until fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, approximately 30 minutes. 

Serve garnished with parley, more lemon juice, and pan sauce.
