Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to bake cod with vegetables in the oven? Grease the bottom of the baking dish with a drop of sunflower oil and place finely chopped zucchini in the first layer. I have frozen, already prepared zucchini. If you have fresh zucchini, first wash it under running water and peel off the skin if it has become hard.

Step 2

Step 2
Place green beans in the next layer. You can use fresh, canned or frozen like mine.

Step 3

Step 3
Peel the onions and cut into thin half rings. It happens that onions are difficult to peel. In this case, soaking the onions in warm water for about five minutes will greatly simplify the work. The husks will become more pliable and easier to peel. Spread the chopped onion over the beans. Salt the vegetables if you need it. I donʼt salt the vegetables, but I do salt the fish fillet itself.

Step 4

Step 4
Next, place the boneless cod fillet, washed under running water and dried with paper towels. Here I salted it quite a bit and peppered it to taste.

Step 5

Step 5
Sprinkle cod with lime juice. Lime juice can be replaced with lemon juice with the same success. Lime is just more flavorful. In general, any sea fish goes well with sour citrus fruits, revealing their usual taste in a new way.

Step 6

Step 6
Wash the selected fresh herbs thoroughly under running water and shake to remove excess moisture. Absolutely any of your favorite greens will work for this dish. I will use dill, parsley and mint. Mint will give the dish a spicy and amazing aroma.

Step 7

Step 7
Finely chop the greens, first removing the tough stems.

Step 8

Step 8
Sprinkle the cod with chopped herbs.

Step 9

Step 9
More for beauty than for taste, add a little finely grated cheese. Bake the cod for 20 minutes in an oven preheated to 180C. If your oven browns very well, then it makes sense not to immediately sprinkle the fish with herbs and cheese, but add them five minutes before the dish is ready. This way the greens will definitely not burn. In general, rely on your oven for this. And in time the fish will be ready very quickly.
