Ingredients
  

For the marinade
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
For the cod
  • 4 pieces cod fillets
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together honey, olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, salt, pepper, and lemon juice for about 1–2 minutes until smooth.
  3. Place the cod fillets in a baking dish in a single layer and pour the marinade evenly over the fish.
  4. Let the cod marinate at room temperature for 10 minutes.
Cooking
  1. Bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until the cod is opaque in the center and flakes easily with a fork.
  2. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

For serving, pair with roasted veggies, quinoa, or brown rice. A squeeze of lemon adds a zesty kick. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for 2-3 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
