Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 °F.
  • Warm the honey in a microwave-safe cup for 15 seconds with a splash of water so it can be easily mixed.

  • Pat the cod filets dry using a paper towel, season each side with salt and pepper.

Notes

Cod or haddock is best prepared in small 6-8 ounce fillets for ease of preparation and serving due to cod's flaky nature.
