Flaky, fragrant, and genuinely impressive for how little effort it takes, this baked cod is the kind of weeknight dinner that feels like a treat. Garlic-infused oil carries the flavors of fresh parsley, thyme, and chives deep into each fillet, while lemon juice and zest keep everything bright and clean-tasting. A dusting of paprika adds just enough warmth and color to make the finished dish look like it came out of a restaurant kitchen. Grain-based coatings and breadcrumb crusts are common in fish recipes, but this one skips all of that entirely — the herb-oil mixture is the star, and it delivers big flavor without any filler. Because every ingredient here is straightforward and naturally grain-free, there's no need to scrutinize labels or worry about hidden additives sneaking into your dinner. The whole thing comes together in one baking dish, which means cleanup is as easy as the cooking. Serve it straight from the oven with a squeeze of lemon and you've got a light, satisfying meal that genuinely delivers.
