When I was growing up my dad did bluefish this way on the grill when we were camping on the beach. It was always wonderful. And freshly caught. I don’t think people eat bluefish anymore and I’ve had people tell me it was bait fish. Oh well. We went clamming and made clam chowder too. It was to die for.
I made this recipe for my wife, before I made it for guests, exactly as explained. It came out fabulous. Thanks. Arthur
This is perfect for one person. My husband doesn't eat fish so I can make fish for me and a chicken breast for him. No wasted food! :D
I made this just like this video. It was delicious and fresh tasting.
Having been born and raised in Maine try swapping out the lemon zest with lime zest it is absolutely delicious and unexpected with cod! :-)
Thank you for mentioning that. Sounds delicious!
OK I just made it with carrots and fennel with vodka. OMG I can eat this everyday for the rest of my like! Thanks!
Excellent recipe. I like fish and will differently make it this way.
It is such a pleasure to watch you ladies together!
You are a great team, funny, cute, great at explaining…
Love you both 🤓💖💕😊
This was an excellent base recipe. I switched out leeks for red onion and also cut some yellow squash into 1/4 inch slices along with matchstick carrots. Also used pear flavored vodka because we had no vermouth. Cooked in foil on the barbeque for 15 minutes. All came out perfect!! Thanks so much for this recipe that was perfect for a summer dinner.
in other words, you fked up the recipe
Great suggestions! I’m trying your version with carrots and zucchini.
I love seeing Julia and Bridget cooking and I will definitely try this recipe.
Love the cod and your chicken recipes. U guys are phenomenal 💘
Great recipe. I tried today. Cod, carrot , and leeks all were delicious. Thanks for uploading this demonstration.
I have to try this. I'm salivating already. thx♥

Girls I think the Cod and veggies looked so good , love the cooking time 15 mins.. wow! enjoy watcing you girls cook
Sounds real good.
this loooks soooooo goood
Thank you girls
To wash leeks BRFORE cutting , slit the white part to make a ‘brush’ ,rinse clean and chop to size.
Can’t wait to try this! 🤤
Thank you. Yummy!
Can’t wait to make that!❤
Excellent recipe. I use this method for cod, salmon and halibut using foil when it's just me. When I have guests, I'll use *_parchment paper_* and serve the pouch on a plate at the table.
Sounds nice. The parchment paper can take the heat of the oven without burning? Especially when cooking so close to the bottom of the oven?
stooge81 it’s not a problem. There will be a touch of browning to the parchment but it looks really cool. Make sure the plates you use to serve it on have a bit of a lip or edge since the amount of sauce in the parchment sometimes surprises your guests. Also a nice touch is to do a fancier pleat with the parchment around the edges, like a calzone. This is my absolute favorite dish for a simple but elegant dinner. You really do need to try it!

I have been looking for a packaged baked cod recipe for a long time.... I think I just found it !
Thanks I'm going to make it tonight 🎉.
I love fixing foil dinners. Even call them my hobo meals.
I found this video searching for a new way to cook cod. This was super easy and SO delicious I will be making it every week. One pound of cod made 3 packets and they reheat well in the microwave (outside the foil of course). Thanks for a new favorite!
Hi Sara, would you happen to know the cooking time if your just cooking one packet?
And would it be the same temperature?
My cod is from Costco frozen and I take one out the night before and let it thaw in the frig? And when I cook it at the temperature they recommend and the time it comes out overcooked Thanks for any advice
Please understand that because of your efforts I have the butter basted Alaskan Cod down to perfection and I am grateful. Twice a week. My fillets are not as thick, so I have to adjust my cooking time. Onion powder, garlic powder and smoked paprika that is it. Thank You
Looks great. Bet it would be great on a grill too
Thanks 🎉
I made it for my family and they liked it.
Fabulous recipie. Cod looks perfectly cooked and flakey. Vegetables add lovely colour. On the whole its appealing to the eyes. Am sure it'll taste good too!!!
I’m excited to make this dish.....from another fish lover! ❤️❤️❤️
Just finished making this---so so good!
bravo. a keeper
This is awesome recipe for an amazing fish. Thanks for sharing the recipe with everyone.
Love your Recipes
Wonderful and practical recipe ! Thank you, and hello from Hong Kong
Delicious cod! Great idea!

A great recipe 😋 👌 thank you 😊
Love the show and the Recipe for baked Fish in foil looks really delicious I am definitely going to try it can you please send me all the ingredients and for similar recipes something quick and easy to make for my family thanks sooo much Have a safe and awesome holiday
It should be called Steamed Cod in Foil as the fish steams and is not baked. Retired chef here.
AWESOME 👌
💛🌝
Two gorgeous ladies cooking great food whats not to like
I think I'm in Cod Heaven!
Excellent idea thanks
I love both of them
Liked your cod , carrots and leek recipe. Will try it out. Thank you
Interesting
Food should not touch aluminum. Use parchment paper.
Your right about aluminum
You can do the same thing in an oven capable sauté pan with a lid, no foil!
If you think this is true, dont ever, ever take aspirin. One tablet contains 2000 times the amount of aluminum you get in food cooked in Aluminum.
I also know that some toothpaste has aluminum in as well , I read it all
urban myth. Cooks country did a review of this myth. see comment above about their findings.
While this is a complete twist to the cod I normally make, it did have a great flavor and the leeks, which is the first time I've ever had them, where a pleasant experience, I think the fresh Alaska cod was a little rubbery.
I'll be trying this for sure. Wow, that looks amazing.
I use parchment paper and skip the butter. I sliced tomatoes and that makes a nice sauce with a little olive oil
We quite often used these foil packets when camping and over an open fire, can't go wrong, when the foil packet became like a pillow, dinner was ready and very little cleanup
We cooked lake trout on canoe trips tightly wrapped in foil with butter and dried onion soup mix. I've had some very nice meals in nice restaurants but was happiest eating this around a campfire followed by some tea and bannock.
@@rfkyt everything cooked outside is yummy :) we camped a lot when my kids were little, nothing fancy but one of their favorites was a beef patty but had all the ingredients of meatloaf, sliced potato, onion and baby carrots. Such an easy meal and cleanup afterwards.
Do you have a cook book
A Simple and easy recipe that tastes decent.
What can I substitute for the Vermouth?
Vermouth and butter it's Julia Child! :-). It is lovely to cook with. Man I wish people would stop calling her Julia Childs!!
You mean like:
"Julia Child's a master chef."
Or "Julia Child's video."?
Can you do a version for frozen cod? How much longer to cook?
As i'm typing the Cod is in the oven 5 min to go thanks soooo much. One happy fam tonight lol.
I use parchment paper.
I ADORE READING
Parchment perhaps?
If only we could get COD that was the size you show! You must be special. All the stores in Florida we are lucky if we get some half inch filets! I might as well get tilapia filets, I don't want farm flimsy filets. A cod filets needs to be 1.5" or thicker.
I know! These fish are expensive, more so now in a health crisis with predicted shortages.
@ Robert Greenhouse , check out my post, you want cod loin in lieu of filets, they are thicker & akin to say the filet mignon of the cod. They are appx. $ 1.00 more per pound than the filets & well worth it, they are usually 1 & 1/2 thick
Looks like a great recipe? Can you do it without foil or parchment paper? Like in a covered casserole dish or something?
@ Susie Thomas, ma'am it won't steam , but you can use parchment paper only, it works.
It might steam just fine if you cover the dish tightly enough with foil. Better yet, cook only two at a time in an oven-safe skillet with a tight-fitting lid.
I'll try with glass casserole the size of which matches the fish and closed on top with that aluminum foil. otherwise, aluminum foil gets thorn apart when getting the fish out
No
You can do this in parchment paper
I have so many combinations of packets but I rarely make them anymore because I only cook for myself although I will make them and let them cool. Then I will freeze them because they are already wrapped in foil and mark the date so that I eat them within 30 days! :-)
I always made my packets from parchment paper cut like a heart. I still do that foil is too expensive.
How would you suggest adjusting temp or time for a convection oven?
I would reduce the time to 10 minutes. I think the adjustment is to cook 30% less. My convection feature has an automatic calculator so I cheat when I can.
Wow are directions not for a convection (fan-forced) oven? Who in the world is using an oven without a fan?
Most of the United States actually. If you a fan assisted oven here, you have to specifically order one.
Cod is abundant?
Yum
Hello 👋 can you use the frozen fish since its really scarce to find fresh ones nowadays?
@ Vad Alarc, yes friend, but thaw in fridge day before
I've done it twice. First time was great. Last night fish came out tough and vegetables were raw
"These are all light flavors going with the fish".... then proceeds to put in minced garlic.
haha good 1
Good idea I have cod in the freezer
No! Do not put acid (vermouth/wine) directly against aluminum. Aluminum is reactive in acid. Line the aluminum foil with parchment first.
Great advise!
Totally agree, use parchment paper instead and this recipe will be fine.
So what did they consume? Aluminum?
In ATK's testing from 2012, they tested cooking stuff on aluminum for extended periods.
"We cooked tomato sauce for two hours in an aluminum pan, stored it overnight in the same pot, then sent the sauce to a lab for analysis. Our finding: The tomato sauce contained only .0024 milligrams of aluminum per cup. (A single antacid tablet may contain more than 200 milligrams of aluminum.) Moreover, our science editor reports that the consensus in the medical community is that using aluminum cookware poses no health threat."
Like cast iron, you could get off flavors from extended cooking in certain situations, or damage nice aluminum pans, but these are being cooked in disposable foil for only 15 minutes. I highly doubt there is that much of a risk, especially when it will be quickly diluted by moisture from the fish, veggies, and butter.
I use just parchment paper. Works beautifully.
Couldnt tell what she was saying in the butter recipe i got thyme and salt but couldnt tell what she was saying it wasnt very clear the other 2 ingredients
I made this using thick pieces of halibut and it is a great recipe. a few changes but technique the same. wonderful. will remember this for sure.
what changes?
Try finely chopped not ground pistachios in gremolata. Pine nuts would be what you would think but try those pistachios.
Also, if it doesn’t get fully cooked, just put the fish on individual plates and nuke for a few seconds in the microwave. It’ll be fine :)
Can I do this with salmon
Can this be cooked on the grill?
Yes, it can. 15 min. cook time - no turning necessary. Came out excellent!!!
Can you swap out for broccoli ?
cod definitely better than halibut but I added green salsa to spice it up. next time I'll put slices of lemon on top
When did garlic become a “light flavor”? Sounds great, though.
try roasted garlic and spread that on baguette slices, the garlic is milder but so delicious
It becomes a light flavor if it is roasted, sweet almost.

Thank you. Now, I'm not afraid to cook cod !
Cod is one of the easiest fish to cook no matter which way you chose!
But, cooking it in foil si just steamed cod, loses a lot of taste that way.
What to use instead of alcohol, anyone?
Can you cook Alaska Pollock the same way?
We do.
you can't, they are on strike
This is a good recipe, i'm not sure if what you call a center cut cod filet is actually the loin, but here you can buy cod filets which are thinner for $ 6.99 a pound, & cod loins which are thicker & somewhat like the filet mignon of the fish & is $ 7.99 a pound. I prefer/recommend the cod loin as has better texture & cooks better whether baking, frying, etc... it is worth the extra $ 1.00 a pound folks. God bless all & please stay safe.
❤ 👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🙏
Can hardly wait to eat aluminum.
I love cod but where do you buy it? Really I haven’t seen cod on the menu for years. I wish they still had the fish and chips restaurants like they used to have like Arthur Treacher’s that used to be around.
Try a fish market or a grocery store. Just bought some today at the local Market Basket.
Has ATK ever researched the possible downside of cooking in foil?
yes they have. there is a comment listed here in the comments.
