Its flavor is mild and pleasantly palatable, and its texture is dense and flaky meaning it can be cooked a variety of ways. Battered cod is often fried to make fish and chips, but you can also pan saut\u00e9, grill, broil, bake, or air fry cod fillets for a delicious and simple seafood dinner.<\/p>\n<h3>About Wild Alaskan Cod<\/h3>\n<p>Wild caught on long lines in the Gulf of Alaska, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.omahasteaks.com\/product\/Wild-Alaskan-Cod-Fillets-4-6-oz-03538?SRC=RZ0636\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"external noopener noreferrer\">Omaha Steaks Wild Alaskan Cod Fillets<\/a> are certified by the Marine Stewardship Council&#8217;s standard for sustainable fishing.

Thaw Cod Fillets<\/h3>\n<p>Cod fillets from Omaha Steaks come frozen and vacuum-sealed. To thaw, remove product from original packaging, place in a resealable bag, and thaw in refrigerator for at least 7 hours. To thaw faster, remove product from original packaging, place in a resealable bag, and submerge bag in cold water for 30 minutes to 1 hour. Cook and consume within 2 days.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Season Cod Fillets<\/h3>\n<p>The flavor of baked cod is so mild and so versatile, there\u2019s almost no limits to how you can prepare it. But there are two basic ways that almost anyone can do and you will definitely find satisfying.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Naked:<\/strong> Just brush your cod fillets with olive oil, sea salt, and fresh lemon juice prior to cooking.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Crunchy:<\/strong> Dredge your cod fillets in a lightly seasoned flour mixture and drizzle them with butter and lemon juice before cooking.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>3. Cook Cod Fillets Using Desired Method<\/h3>\n<p><b>PAN SAUT\u00c9: <\/b>Preheat a skillet with 2 tsp. of cooking oil to medium. Carefully place cod in pan and cook, covered, for 6-7 minutes. Flip and cook an additional 6-7 minutes.<\/p>\n<p><b>GRILL:<\/b> Preheat grill to medium heat. Pat dry, lightly oil and season desired number of fish fillets. Wrap fillets in foil. Grill for 3-4 minutes. Flip, then grill an additional 3-4 minutes.<\/p>\n<p><b>BROIL:<\/b> Preheat broiler to high. Brush with olive oil or melted butter, season. Place on an oven safe pan on highest rack and broil, uncovered, for approximately 5 minutes. Flip, and broil an additional 5 minutes.<\/p>\n<p><b>BAKE:<\/b> Preheat oven to 375\u00b0F.\u00a0 Place fillets on a lightly oiled, foil-lined baking sheet. Cook for 12-14 minutes.<\/p>\n<p><b>AIR FRYER:<\/b> Preheat to 350\u00b0F. Spray the basket with a non-stick cooking spray. Add the fish and cook for 12-13 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>These cooking times are estimates. Cod is fully cooked when it turns opaque and the internal temperature reaches 145\u00b0 Fahrenheit. We recommend always testing your food with a high-quality digital meat thermometer to determine doneness.
