Instructions

Step 1

Stir together all of the ingredients for the marinade in a measuring cup or a mixing bowl until well combined.

Step 2

Place cod filets in a sealable container or zip lock bag and pour in the marinade. Seal the bag (or container) and move it around until everything is well-coated in marinade.

Step 3

Refrigerate at least 30 minutes, up to 10 hours.

Step 4

When you’re ready to bake, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Step 5

Transfer the fish, along with the marinade, to a large casserole dish. Bake on the rack that’s second closest to the top of the oven for 15 minutes, or until fish is completely cooked through.
