Baked Cod
DESCRIPTION
Baked cod is a delicate seafood dish featuring tender, flaky white fish fillets. The cod is drizzled with olive oil and white wine, then topped with a flavorful mixture of breadcrumbs, diced tomatoes, parsley, and butter. Seasoned with lemon, salt, and black pepper, the dish is baked until the cod is cooked through and the topping is golden and crispy.
WINE PAIRING
For baked cod, a delicate white fish, pair with a crisp white wine like Chardonnay or a light-bodied red like Pinot Noir. The buttery texture of cod complements the citrus and apple notes in Chardonnay, while its mild flavor won't overpower the wine. Alternatively, a light Pinot Noir with red fruit and earthy notes can enhance the fish's savory flavors from the olive oil and herbs.
