📋Baked Cod with Potatoes And Onions

This baked cod with potatoes and onions is a classic Italian recipe and it is very easy to make. Healthy and delicious at the same time, seasoned with only extra virgin olive oil, salt and pepper, no butter. The cod cooks in the oven over a thin layer of potatoes and onions. While the cod remains soft and flaky, the potatoes form a nice crispy crust absorbing the flavor of the onions and the cod.

Notes

The potatoes should be cut very thin
If you use the amount of potatoes in the recipe they will cook in the same time as the fish. If you want more potatoes bake them 10 or 15 minutes before putting on the fish.
This recipe is at its best made with fresh fish, but you can also use frozen fish. Although, make sure it is defrosted and drained from excess water. You don't want the potatoes to boil but to form a nice crunchy crust.
