Lemon Herb Crusted Cod with Southern Corn Pudding
This dish brings together the delicate flavors of lemon cod fish and a rich, creamy corn pudding, embodying the warmth and hospitality of Southern cooking. The crispy herb crust provides a delightful contrast to the tender fish, making it a stunning centerpiece for any gathering.
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a bowl, combine bread crumbs with chopped fresh parsley, salt, and pepper. Coat each piece of lemon cod in the bread crumb mixture.
Step 2: Place the crusted cod on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 15-20 minutes until the fish is flaky and the crust is golden.
Step 3: While the fish is baking, in a mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup of cornmeal, 1 cup of milk, 2 beaten eggs, 1 cup of corn kernels, melted butter, baking powder, salt, and pepper. Pour into a greased baking dish and bake alongside the fish for 25-30 minutes until set and lightly golden.
