If you’re looking for a super simple and delicious way to prepare cod, this three-ingredient recipe is perfect for busy nights. With just cod fillets, breadcrumbs, and butter, you’ll have a tasty meal ready in no time!
- What You’ll Need:
- 2 pieces of cod fillets
- 1 stick of butter (melted)
- Bread crumbs (enough to coat the fish)
- Steps to Make the Cod:

- Prep the Fish
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Melt a stick of butter and pour it onto a plate.
Take your cod fillets and dip each side into the melted butter. Make sure the fish is fully coated on both sides. - Coat with Bread Crumbs
After dipping the cod in butter, press it into the bread crumbs on one side only.
Repeat this process for the second piece of cod, ensuring both fillets are coated with butter and bread crumbs on one side. - Add Extra Bread Crumbs
If you love extra crunch, add some additional bread crumbs to the top of the cod. Gently press the crumbs in so they stick well. - Butter on Top
Pour any leftover melted butter over the top of the bread crumbs. This adds extra flavor and helps the breadcrumbs crisp up in the oven. - Bake
Place your prepared cod fillets into the preheated oven.
Bake for about 15 to 20 minutes or until the fish is cooked through and the breadcrumbs are golden and crispy. - Serve and Enjoy
Once the cod is done, take it out of the oven and serve it up with your favorite sides. It pairs great with mashed potatoes and green beans for a complete meal.
