Ingredients
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- dash of black pepper
- 1 1/2 pounds fresh cod fillet
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- juice of 1/2 lemon
- 2 small tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
Preparation
Step 1
1. Combine the spices in a small bowl and set aside.
2. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Cut the fish into 4 equal portions and arrange the fillets in a 9 x 13 inch baking dish or pan.
3. Melt the butter in a small bowl in the microwave for 10 to 20 seconds. Brush the top of each fillet with butter, drizzle a little lemon juice on the fish, then sprinkle the spice blend evenly over the top of each fillet.
4. Arrange 2 to 3 tomato slices over the top of each fillet.
5. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over each tomato slice. Each slice should be a least 50 percent covered with the cheese, and it's okay for some of the cheese to fall on the fish.
6. Bake the fish, uncovered, for 8 minutes, then turn the oven to a high broil and continue to cook for 6 to 8 minutes or until the cheese on the tomaotos begins to brown. Serve two pieces of fish per serving with rice on the side, if desired.
