*Cook Book correction page 33 - add 1/2 tsp. garlic powder to the mixture

BAKED COD PARMESAN
1 1/3 lbs. cod fillets, about 1/2 inch thick. (I also use tilapia)
salt and pepper to fillet
1/3 c. Parmigiano Reggiano, grated
3 T. unsalted butter, melted
1-2 tsp. Italian parsley, minced
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/3 c. dry bread crumbs ( I like panko- Japanese bread crumbs)
few grinds of fresh black pepper

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Combine butter, bread crumbs,pepper, cheese, garlic
powder,and parsley in a small bowl. Season both layers of the fish with salt and
pepper, then the mixture. Place fish in a single layer in a shallow greased baking dish.
Sprinkle crumb mixture on top and pat down. Bake about 10 minutes (until fish flakes
when touched with a fork). Bread crumbs should be golden.
