Broiled Cod Recipes

BROILED FISH FILLET RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven on the broil setting.
• Heat the butter in a small skillet and stir in the salt, pepper, paprika and lemon juice. Arrange the fish on a greased rack in a broiler pan (thin fillets may be placed in the pan without the rack). Brush the fillets with the seasoned butter.
• Broil 4-5 inches from the source of heat until the fish flakes with a fork, about 5 to 10 minutes depending on the thickness of the fish fillets. Thick fillets should be turned about halfway through the cooking period.
• Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley and serve with lemon or lime wedges.

BROILED COD

Steps:

• Preheat broiler. In a shallow bowl, mix first 7 ingredients; add cod, turning to coat. Let stand 10-15 minutes., Place fillets on a greased rack of a broiler pan; discard remaining marinade. Broil 3-4 in. from heat until fish just begins to flake easily with a fork, 10-12 minutes. Top with butter.

HERB & GARLIC BROILED COD

Steps:

• Heat broiler.
• Mix dressing and seasonings until blended.
• Place fish on rack of broiler pan sprayed with cooking spray; brush with dressing mixture.
• Broil, 4 inches from heat, 6 to 8 min. or until fish flakes easily with fork. Drizzle with lemon juice.

GRILLED COD

Steps:

• Stack about 15 charcoal briquettes into a grill in a pyramid shape. If desired, drizzle coals lightly with lighter fluid and allow to soak for 1 minute before lighting coals with a match. Allow fire to spread to all coals, about 10 minutes, before spreading briquettes out into the grill; let coals burn until a thin layer of white ash covers the coals. Lightly oil the grates.
• Season both sides of cod with Cajun seasoning, lemon pepper, salt, and black pepper. Set fish aside on a plate. Heat butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, stir in lemon juice and green onion, and cook until onion is softened, about 3 minutes.
• Place cod onto oiled grates and grill until fish is browned and flakes easily, about 3 minutes per side; baste with butter mixture frequently while grilling. Allow cod to rest off the heat for about 5 minutes before serving.

BROILED SESAME COD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Line a broiler pan with aluminum foil.
• Place the cod fillets on the foil, and brush with butter. Season with lemon juice, tarragon, and black pepper; sprinkle with sesame seeds.
• Broil the fish in the preheated broiler until the flesh turns opaque and white, and the fish flakes easily, about 10 minutes.

BROILED COD WITH LEMON BUTTER GARLIC SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler on the oven. Pat the cod with a paper towel, then season both sides with the salt and pepper.
• Melt the butter over medium-high heat in a cast iron or oven-proof skillet that is no bigger than 12 inches. Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, for 30 seconds, then stir in the lemon juice and zest.
• Place the cod fillets in the pan and cook for 1 minute, then carefully turn them over.
• Place the skillet in the oven about 4-6 inches from the broiler. Broil for 6-9 minutes, depending on the thickness of your fillets, or until the internal temperature of the cod reaches 130-140°F on a meat thermometer inserted into the center of the thickest portion of a fillet.
• Garnish with the parsley and extra lemon slices, if desired, and serve.

PAN FRIED COD

Steps:

• Pat the cod fillets very dry. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
• Heat the oil a 10-inch or similar cast-iron or heavy-bottom skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot and shiny (but not yet smoking), gently lower the fish into the oil, moving away from your body with your motion in case the oil splatters. Lower the heat to medium.
• Let the fish cook undisturbed on the first side for 2 to 3 minutes, until the underside is nicely golden.
• Gently flip the cod over. A flexible, thin metal spatula (such as a fish spatula) works best. The cod might stick a bit at first, but work gently and firmly and you'll get it. Place the butter in the pan. With a spoon, spread the pat around the fish. Tilt the pan away from you so that the butter pools, then baste the fish with the butter a few times.
• Continue cooking on the other side until the fish is opaque, flakes easily with a fork, and reaches 145 degrees F on an instant read thermometer, about 2 additional minutes.
• Sprinkle with fresh herbs and squeeze the lemon over the top. Enjoy immediately, with an extra squeeze of lemon if desired.

GRILLED COD

Steps:

• Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. The target temp is about 400 degrees F.
• Pat the cod dry and place on a plate. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• In a small, microwave-safe bowl in the microwave or a small saucepan on the stove, melt the butter. Stir in the lemon juice.
• If cooking the fish in foil packets: Place each piece of cod in the center of a large, double-stacked piece of aluminum foil (the pieces should each be about 18 inches square). Brush both sides of the cod liberally with the butter/lemon juice mixture. Bring two opposite edges of the foil up and towards the center so that they meet, then fold them down over each other to make a seam in the center. Fold in the edges to seal so that you create a packet. Leave some space inside of each packet for air to circulate. If not using a foil packet, brush the fish on the plate.
• Prepare the sauce: in a small food processor, place the cilantro and garlic. Pulse several times, until the garlic is minced.
• Add the lemon juice, olive oil, chili, oregano, and salt and pulse again to combine.
• Add the yogurt, then blend until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired. Refrigerate until you are ready to serve the fish.
• When ready to grill: if you are not using the foil packet, immediately before grilling the fish, oil the grill VERY well so that the fish doesn't stick (if using a packet, no need to oil). Cook the fish on the first side without disturbing it for 6 minutes, then carefully flip (the fish should release easily; if it doesn't, cook it a little longer).
• Cook for an additional 6 to 7 minutes on the second side, or until the cod is opaque, flakes easily with a fork, and reaches an internal temperature of 145 F. DO NOT flip the fish back over. If you are using a foil packet, no need to flip the fish; cook it for 8 to 10 minutes total, until the fish is completely cooked through.
• Remove cod from the grill. Serve with the green sauce and an additional sprinkle of fresh herbs.

BROILED COD WITH CHIVE BUTTER

Steps:

• In a small dish add the soft butter and snipped chives. Mix with a spatula to combine well. Set aside while broiling the cod filets.
• Set the oven rack to the upper position, about 4-6 inches from the heat and set the control to Broil. Allow 5 minutes for the oven to heat. Line a baking sheet with foil and set a wire rack over it.
• Pat the fillets on both sides with paper towels to remove as much moisture as possible. Brush them with the olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Dust each fillet lightly on the top side with paprika and place them on the wire rack.
• Broil the fillets for 7-10 minutes, (begin checking at 7 minutes) just until the fish is opaque and begins to flake easily when a fork is inserted into the thickest part.
• Remove the fillets from the oven, place on serving plates. Top each serving with a dollop of chive butter, garnish with chive blossoms and serve.

PERFECT GRILLED COD

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium-high heat (375 to 450 degrees Fahrenheit).
• Bring the cod to room temperature for about 15 minutes.
• Pat the cod dry with a clean towel. Rub it with the olive oil and sprinkle it with the kosher salt and fresh ground pepper. Then cover it with the homemade blackened seasoning or seafood seasoning on all sides.
• Grill the cod over indirect heat for 4 minutes, until it releases from the grates. Flip and cook another 2 to 4 minutes, until the internal temperature is 130 degrees (right when the cod starts to flake when pulled with a fork). Allow to rest for a few minutes, then serve.
