Baked Cod with Lemon Butter is a classic seafood dish that has been enjoyed for generations. This dish originated in coastal regions where fresh cod is abundant, such as in the Mediterranean and New England. The delicate flavor of the cod is enhanced by the zesty lemon butter, creating a perfect balance of richness and brightness. Chefs often use a variety of fresh herbs like parsley, dill, or chives to add a pop of color and freshness to the dish. Today, this delectable dish can be found in seafood restaurants and fine dining establishments around the world. For the best version of this dish, sourcing high-quality, fresh cod and using real butter and freshly squeezed lemon juice are essential. Alternatively, some chefs also add a touch of white wine or garlic to elevate the flavors even further. Whether it's served in a quaint seaside bistro or a Michelin-starred restaurant, Baked Cod with Lemon Butter remains a timeless favorite for seafood lovers.
