Baked Cod with Ritz Cracker Topping

  (adapted from Allrecipes)

  Servings: 2

One of my favorite fish dishes is baked cod with Ritz cracker crumb topping.  It's easy and delicious.  This reminds me of Boston baked scrod that I enjoy every time I visit New England!  

INGREDIENTS:

4 Tablespoons butter, melted

½ sleeve buttery round crackers (such as Ritz), crushed

1 pound cod (I used two frozen cod fillets)

¼ cup dry white wine (I used Pinot Grigio)

2 teaspoons dried parsley (or 1 Tablespoon chopped fresh parsley)

2 teaspoons dried Italian seasoning (or combination of dried basil and oregano)

Salt and pepper to taste

1 lemon, cut into wedges

DIRECTIONS:

·         Preheat oven to 400 degrees F

·         Line baking dish with foil and spray with cooking spray

·         Put fish on pan

·         Pour 1/2 of butter and wine mixture over fish

·         Evenly spread crumbs on top of fish and pat down.

·         Drizzle remaining butter and wine mixture over the fish.

·         Bake 20 – 23 minutes at 400 degrees F until fish is done and topping is browned

·         Serve with lemon wedges
