I baked mine in the oven last night with a little butter in the baking dish and then some salt, pepper and cayenne on top. It wasn't bad but I wouldn't mind other suggestions.

    I like to cut it in small(ish) pieces and lightly coat in flour mixed with seasoning then pan fry in a little bit of butter. This makes good fish tacos or serve with rice or quinoa and veggies. Emeril has a recipe for his "essence" that you can find on-line. I keep a jar on hand at all times. This is usually what I mix with my flour.

    I've always wanted to try making fish tacos but for some reason it seems like so much work.

    I make a parchment paper packet with cod, sweet mini peppers, onion, garlic, mushrooms, sometimes hot pepper, salt and pepper. Sometimes I use old bay seasoning instead of salt and pepper. Then I bake it.

    I bake it brushed with butter with parsley and dill sprinkled on top. Or I dip it flour then egg then panko crumbs and deep fry it. More calories but I make it fit and don't do it very often just when I get a craving

    Season some breadcrumbs and mix in a little parmesan, chopped parsley and lemon zest. Dip your fish in fat free natural yoghurt then the crumb mixture and bake in a hot oven. Very very tasty!

    Braised cod -- this has olive oil, butter, lemon and spices and is really, really, really good:

    I make baked cod similar to this, but dip in coconut milk before rolling in seasoned crumbs. I'll definitely try the yogurt next time!

    I also make "poor man's lobster" with cod. Fill a pot with water, add 1/2 cup to a cup of sugar, a couple Tbsp of salt and a couple Tbsp of vinegar. Bring to a boil, add cod and let cook about 20 minutes or until the fish pieces float to the top. Dip in butter. Yum!! (There's a lot of different recipes online for this. I learned this one from my step-dad who was an Alaskan fisherman.)

    If I'm being "good" I just do an egg wash and dredge them in a little flower and pan fry in a little avocado oil. If I'm being "bad"...which is usually the case, I beer batter them and deep fry them and and then I make a kick *kitten* chipotle slaw and some homemade salsa fresca and rock some tacos.

    I love this tomato caper sauce for any white fish. Just pan fry or broil and top it with the sauce.

    Cod wasn't even in my plans for dinner last night, but once I got to the store it was looking good and on sale so I picked some up but once I got home I realized I didn't know how to prepare it so that's why I made it so boring. I figured someone here could help me out. I might have it again tonight or soon with some of these suggestions.

    Ohh god yes, if I'm being 'bold', I'll make a guinness battered cod with proper chunky deep fried chips, roasted garlic mayo dip, homemade floury baps mmmmyummy!!

    I marinate it for about 15 minutes in 1/4 cup orange juice, the juice from 1 lime and some lime zest, a little chili powder and cumin, salt and pepper. Then I bake it at 375 for 10-15 minutes (until flaky) and make it in to fish TACOS. I love tacos. I generally use the same spices and citrus to make a citrus slaw that goes on top the fish. Sometimes I add some diced mango.

    Oh, sometimes I just season (cajun or just adobo) and pan fry on both sides then make fish tacos with spicy pickle tartar sauce, plenty of slaw, jalapeno, cilantro and lime on warmed corn tortillas. I forget about them in the winter, but I think I need some fish tacos this weekend.
