About
Cod is the perfect foundation for incredible dishes; it soaks in aromas and flavors like a sponge, so every flaky bite is a taste explosion. Lemon Cod puts these fantastic qualities on full display with a bright, rich sauce infusing the fish with citrusy joy throughout. Add in a crispy, smoky, and even more lemony seasoning mix, and Lemon Cod practically radiates in sweet tanginess. Plus you can have this sunbeam of a dish ready in just half an hour.
