Baked Cod with Lemon Butter is a classic seafood dish that has been enjoyed for generations.

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.
