Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 2 servings servings

  • 1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus more for buttering the pan

  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley

  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest

  • 1 clove garlic, minced

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste

  • 1/8 teaspoon white pepper

  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice

  • 2 (6 to 8- ounce) cod filets

  • 2 tablespoons panko breadcrumbs

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking pan with foil and butter the foil.

  2. Place 1 1/2 tablespoons butter on a cutting board and spread out in a 3-inch circle. Sprinkle parsley, lemon zest, garlic, salt, and white pepper on the butter circle.

  3. Mix butter and seasonings with a fork until well blended, about 2 minutes. Mound up the lemon-herb butter and divide in half.

  4. Pat cod filets dry with a paper towel and place on the buttered pan. Spread half the lemon-herb butter on each filet. Evenly top each filet with panko crumbs.

  5. Bake filets in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork and topping is lightly browned, 10 to 12 minutes.

My Norwegian grandmother made these pancakes for us as a treat, and they continue to be a favorite when my mother makes them for my kids. They're very easy and versatile — serve them rolled like crêpes with syrup or jam. Or serve them for dessert stuffed with sweetened cream cheese and lingonberry jam.
