Mayo Broiled Cod

Mayo Broiled Cod

15 minutes || My rating: 8/10 || Difficulty rating: Easy

Directions:

  1. Take a 1 pound piece of cod and pat it with piece of paper towel to remove some of the excess moisture. Place on a sheet pan and season the cod with salt and pepper.
  2. Take about a 1/2 cup of mayo spread it on the top of your piece of fish. Make sure it’s in an even layer covering the entire top of the fish.
  3. Take your pan and put it on the 2nd highest shelf in your oven and turn the broiler on high. Cook until the top of the mayo turns a golden brown color. The fish will have cooked all the way through and be soft and easily fall apart.
  4. Enjoy!

Pro-tips:

  1. You can mix different flavors into the mayo to mix the flavor profile up! Bold flavors like chipotle would be fantastic. I often use a basil pesto.
  2. For quick clean up, put tin foil on your sheet pan! When you’re done, all you do is toss the tin foil out and rinse off your pan. This helps preserve your pans for a longer period of time as well.
  3. If the fish needs a little more time to cook, drop the pan down to a lower shelf in the over and cook under the broiler for another minute or 2 until cooked through.
  4. For an even healthier option, use vegan mayo.
