Okay, so when it comes to fish I normally make the dish with (milk-based) butter for my husband and myself -- there's just something about fish and butter. And then I make a separate dish for our daughter that is dairy-free. Normally it's not that much work, and I do this for many meals. However the other night I came across this recipe and tried it dairy-free for all of us. It was so good!
Dairy-Free Baked Cod
adapted from cooks.com
1 lb fish (I used wild caught Alaskan cod)
1/4 cup melted dairy-free butter (I used Earth's Balance)
2 tsp soy sauce
2 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp lime juice (see my tip for having lemon and lime juice on hand)
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
1. Cut fish into single portion sizes or keep whole. Place in baking dish.
2. Mix all other ingredients together and pour over fish.
3. Bake at 400 degrees for half hour. Baste once our twice while baking.
A little update

I simply refuse to make multiple meals anymore! Call me tired or lazy, take your pick, but those days/years are over. (If I'm going to the effort of making something tasty, healthy and safe for everyone then EVERYONE is going to pick up a fork without complaint!) At this point I no longer even have butter in the house, just Earth Balance.
ReplyDeleteI usually make tilapia, but you've got me thinking about cod now. The recipe looks really good!
