Cornflake-Crusted Baked Cod

Cornflake-Crusted Baked Cod

Children enjoy fish sticks, yet they are not the most sophisticated dinner option. Introducing this cornflake-crusted cod—it's similar enough to those cherished fish sticks that kids will not reject them, while still offering a more mature flavor and texture.

To make the crusted fish, establish two stations: one for the egg mixture and another for the cornflake mixture. Dip the fillets in each station before placing them on the baking sheet. This setup simplifies clean-up and accelerates the fish preparation process.

Suggestions

Accompany the fish with roasted or mashed potatoes and green beans sautéed with walnuts and brown butter. Include tartar sauce or cilantro aioli on the side for dipping.

Begin preparations earlier in the day by coating the fish and refrigerating it until you are ready to bake.

If cornflakes are unavailable, substitute them with cracker crumbs or breadcrumbs.

If you possess wire racks, position them on the baking sheet, apply pan spray, and place the fish on the wire rack. This method allows hot air to circulate beneath the fish, cooking the bottom of the fillet effectively.

If sustainability is a priority for you, opt for farmed Atlantic cod or Pacific Alaska cod instead of wild Atlantic cod or Pacific cod sourced from Japan or Russia.

This cooking technique can also be applied to other varieties of white fish, as well as boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs.

Recipe Variations

Parmesan-crusted baked cod: Substitute the crushed cereal with half a cup of breadcrumbs and half a cup of grated Parmesan cheese.

Herb-crusted baked cod: Swap the cornflakes for three-quarters of a cup of breadcrumbs and one tablespoon each of dried oregano, dried basil, and dried parsley.

Air-fried variation: Prepare the fish as instructed. Preheat the air fryer to 350°F. Arrange the fillets in the air fryer and cook for about 12 minutes until the crust becomes crispy.

BAKED COD OR HALIBUT RECIPE

This baked halibut recipe offers a quick and sophisticated dinner option, suitable for a weeknight yet luxurious enough for a dinner gathering. The combination of Italian-style seasoning, lemon, and fresh dill imparts a distinctly Mediterranean taste—reminiscent of coastal Greek-Italian cuisine. It is baked in the oven, resulting in a simple fish dish that can be prepared in just 15 minutes!

The presentation features four baked halibut fillets adorned with lemon and dill on a serving platter, accompanied by a spoon. In the background, small bowls containing various seasonings and salt are visible.

As someone who grew up by the coast, I have always been fond of fish, which is a significant and cherished component of the Mediterranean diet. Therefore, I require no persuasion when it comes to enjoying buttery, tender baked halibut, poached halibut, or sheet pan halibut with vegetables.

This particular easy halibut recipe is ideal for both fish enthusiasts and those who are hesitant about fish! Firstly, halibut is a very mild fish that readily absorbs any flavor you impart. It is far from being “fishy,” possessing a subtly sweet and somewhat meaty profile, while remaining tender when cooked properly.

Secondly, my approach here is more savory and less briny. I season it similarly to how one might season chicken, using robust garlic powder and fragrant Italian seasoning. A squeeze of fresh lemon and a dash of dill at the end enhances the savory profile, making the flaky roasted fish utterly irresistible.

If you require further persuasion, halibut is abundant in protein, low in fat, and an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals. Additionally, if you seek a more economical alternative, this recipe is also suitable for any mildly flavored white fish.

Ingredients for this Halibut Recipe

This halibut recipe is quite adaptable, primarily utilizing basic pantry items, many of which can be modified or replaced according to your available ingredients. You will require:

Halibut has a mild and sweet taste, featuring a delicate yet rich flavor profile. It remains tender when baked, making it a delightful choice! Although it can be pricey, feel free to make substitutions. Any firm, mildly flavored white fish, such as cod, fluke, flounder, or turbot, would also be suitable. Adjust the cooking duration based on the thickness of your fillet. Mine was 1 inch thick; reduce the cooking time by a minute or two for thinner fish, and increase it by a minute or two for thicker varieties.

Kosher salt and black pepper enhance the overall flavor.

Aleppo pepper provides a gentle kick and a hint of brightness, but red pepper flakes are a good alternative if you have them available. Alternatively, you can omit the chili pepper if you prefer a milder taste.

Italian seasoning contributes an aromatic and savory element. I particularly enjoy the balance of sweet basil, earthy thyme, piney rosemary, citrusy marjoram, peppery parsley, and fragrant oregano in my homemade blend. However, store-bought options are perfectly acceptable as well.

Garlic powder introduces a sweet and savory depth to the dish. If you prefer, you can substitute it with a clove of minced fresh garlic.

Fresh lemon juice brightens the fish's flavor. Lime is also a good option, but do not skip the citrus! It is a crucial seasoning; without it, the fish may taste bland and unappealing.

Extra virgin olive oil coats the fish, adding richness, enhancing flavor, ensuring a beautiful roast, and preventing sticking. Opt for a high-quality extra virgin variety.

Dill imparts freshness and a vibrant flavor. You may substitute it with any tender fresh herbs of your choice or even add them alongside the dill. Consider parsley, cilantro, basil, or mint as alternatives.

How to Prepare Halibut

This halibut recipe is straightforward: simply season the fish and bake it in the oven until it is just cooked through. The primary concern is to avoid overcooking, as this will cause the fish to become dry. Here is the optimal method for cooking halibut to ensure it remains tender and juicy:

Prepare your workspace. Position a rack in the center of your oven and preheat it to 425°F. Lightly coat a sheet pan with a thin layer of olive oil.

Season the fish. Cut the halibut fillet into four equal portions. Generously sprinkle salt and pepper (approximately 1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon each), 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning, and 1/2 teaspoon each of garlic powder and Aleppo pepper or red pepper flakes over the fish. Arrange the seasoned fillets on the prepared sheet pan. Four seasoned, unbaked halibut fillets on a baking sheet surrounded by dill and bowls of olive oil, salt, pepper, and other seasonings.

Roast the fish. Drizzle extra virgin olive oil over the fish. Slice half of the lemon into thin rounds and place them atop the fish (set the other half of the lemon aside for later). Bake on the middle rack of the preheated oven until the thickest part of the fish flakes easily when touched with a fork, which should take about 10 to 15 minutes. Four baked halibut fillets topped with lemon slices on a baking sheet surrounded by bowls of olive oil, salt, pepper, and other seasonings.

Complete and serve. Take the dish out of the oven and squeeze the remaining lemon juice over the fish. Sprinkle dill on top and serve immediately. An overhead photo of four baked halibut fillets garnished with lemon and dill on a serving platter with a spoon. Surrounding the platter are fresh dill and small bowls of seasonings and salt.

Accompaniments for Baked Halibut

I enjoy serving this halibut as part of a vibrant and healthy spread that features a variety of colors and textures. A simple vegetable side, such as Lemon Garlic Sautéed Asparagus or this Greek Green Bean Salad, pairs well with the fish and is easy to prepare.

When tomatoes are in season, a Mediterranean cucumber tomato salad alongside a starch like couscous or rice would create a delightful summer meal. During the cooler months, the combination of citrus and fish makes for a wonderful match.

Accompany with a fresh fennel and orange salad. If you enjoy condiments, consider adding a spoonful of olive tapenade or chermoula. Alternatively, for those who appreciate a bit of heat, take inspiration from our baked red snapper recipe and pair it with zhoug.

Halibut is a mild, meaty fish that appeals to both seafood enthusiasts and skeptics alike, especially when prepared with this delicious combination of Italian herbs, garlic, and fresh lemon and dill—imagine a coastal Greek-Italian fusion.

The fish is baked in the oven, making it a simple, crowd-pleasing dinner option that can be prepared quickly enough for a weeknight meal, yet the halibut elevates this dish to be suitable for a dinner party. Should you prefer a more economical fish, you may substitute it with any firm white fish, such as cod, fluke, flounder, or turbot. Regardless of your choice, serve it alongside a fresh seasonal side.

Preparation time – 5 minutes

Notes

If your halibut fillets arrive with the skin intact, roast them with the skin side down. Remove or cut off the skin prior to serving.

Cod Fish Recipe INGREDIENTS

• A piece of cod fish from the middle of the back, weighing four, five or six pounds.
• A cupful of bread-crumbs, peppered and salted.
• 2 table-spoonfuls boiled salt pork, finely chopped.
• A table-spoonful chopped parsley, sweet marjoram and thyme, with a mere suspicion of minced onion.
• 1 teaspoonful anchovy sauce, or Harvey's, if you prefer it. 1/2 cupful drawn butter.
• Juice of half a lemon.
• 1 beaten egg.

Cod Fish Recipe INSTRUCTIONS

Place the cod fish in a very cold saltwater solution for two hours; then wipe it dry. Make deep cuts on both sides at right angles to the backbone and rub the cuts, as well as the entire surface, with a forcemeat composed of breadcrumbs, pork, herbs, onion, and seasoning, all bound together with raw egg.

Arrange it in a baking pan and pour over it the drawn butter (which should be quite thin), seasoned with anchovy sauce, lemon juice, pepper, and a pinch of parsley.

Bake in a moderate oven for nearly an hour—extend the time if the piece is large, basting frequently to prevent it from browning too quickly.

If the sauce thickens excessively, add a little butter and water. Once the cod fish is cooked, transfer it to a hot dish and strain the gravy over it.

A few capers or chopped green pickles can enhance the gravy. The cod fish recipe is now complete...enjoy it!

What Is Salt Cod?

Salt cod is cod that has been preserved by salting and drying, a technique used for centuries to extend shelf life and intensify flavor. Once soaked and rehydrated, salt cod becomes tender, flaky, and rich—ideal for baking, stewing, or pan-frying.

Ingredients

500g salt cod, soaked and desalted
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, thinly sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 medium potatoes, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon paprika (sweet or smoked)
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 bay leaf
½ cup cherry tomatoes or crushed tomatoes
Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Lemon wedges, for serving

Optional additions: olives, capers, bell peppers, or fresh thyme

How to Desalt Salt Cod

Rinse salt cod under cold running water.
Place it in a large bowl of cold water.
Soak for 24–48 hours, changing the water every 6–8 hours.
Taste a small piece—when pleasantly seasoned (not salty), it’s ready to use.

Tip: Thicker pieces require longer soaking.

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat & Prepare

Preheat oven to 190°C (375°F).
Lightly grease a baking dish with olive oil.

Step 2: Build the Base

Arrange sliced potatoes in an even layer at the bottom of the dish.
Scatter onions, garlic, bay leaf, tomatoes, paprika, and black pepper over the potatoes.
Drizzle with half of the olive oil.

Step 3: Add the Salt Cod

Place the desalted cod pieces on top of the vegetable layer.
Drizzle with remaining olive oil.

Step 4: Bake

Cover loosely with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
Remove foil and bake an additional 15–20 minutes, until the fish flakes easily and the potatoes are tender.

Step 5: Serve

Remove bay leaf.
Garnish with fresh parsley.
Serve warm with lemon wedges on the side.

Tips for Perfect Baked Salt Cod

Don’t skip soaking: Proper desalting is essential for balanced flavor.
Use good olive oil: It enhances the richness of the fish.
Layer wisely: Potatoes absorb the flavorful juices and become incredibly tender.
Avoid overbaking: Salt cod becomes dry if cooked too long uncovered.

Why This Recipe Works

Authentic & Traditional: Honors classic salt cod preparation methods.
Healthy & Satisfying: High in protein, naturally low in fat.
Deeply Flavorful: Slow baking allows flavors to meld beautifully.
Versatile: Easily adapted with regional spices and vegetables.

Complements crisp white wines such as Vinho Verde or Sauvignon Blanc.
