Dukkah Crusted Codfish

Most people think Cod is “boring” or “bland”. Personally, I think it is an elegant fish with subtle flavor and a texture that is both flaky and durable. It is the perfect compliment to the crunch and spice in my pistachio dukkah.

This dukkah crusted cod is so incredibly easy and the result is so special you will deceive people into thinking you’ve put a lot of effort into creating this wonderful main course.

Servings: 1 This can be multiplied for the number of people you are serving. You can also cook a single large filet accounting for 6 ounces per person.

Ingredients:

Procedure:
