Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Broiled Sesame Cod Fillets.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven's broiler and adjusting the rack so it sits about 6 inches from the heat source.
Step 2
To make cleanup a breeze, line a broiler pan with aluminum foil.
Step 3
Next, arrange your fresh cod fillets on the prepared pan, making sure they have plenty of space to cook evenly.
Step 4
Give each fillet a generous brush of melted butter, ensuring they’re nicely coated for that rich flavor.
Step 5
Now, add a splash of bright lemon juice to enhance the taste, followed by a sprinkle of dried tarragon and a dash of ground black pepper for a hint of warmth.
Step 6
For a delightful crunch, finish off with a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
Step 7
Once your fillets are all dressed up, slide the broiler pan into the oven.
Step 8
Let the cod broil for about 10 minutes, keeping an eye on it until the fish turns opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Step 9
The aroma will fill your kitchen, making it hard to resist! Enjoy your perfectly broiled cod, bursting with flavor and ready to impress.
