Lemon Garlic Butter Baked Cod

This baked cod is a fast-to-prepare main dish. I like to boil some baby gold potatoes and mash them while the fish bakes, then serve the fish over mashed potatoes on a bed of lightly wilted spinach. The luscious butter sauce adds flavor to both the potatoes and spinach.
