  • If you prefer a crispier bacon, you can broil the stuffed cod for a couple of minutes at the end of the cooking time.
  • Feel free to customize the stuffing by adding ingredients like chopped sun-dried tomatoes, olives, or garlic for extra flavor.
  • To ensure the cod cooks evenly, choose fillets that are similar in size and thickness.
  • If you don't have toothpicks, you can use kitchen twine to secure the bacon around the cod fillets.

Storage and Serving

  • Leftover stuffed cod wrapped in bacon can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • To reheat, place the cod in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes, or until heated through.
  • Serve the reheated cod with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice to brighten the flavors.
  • This dish pairs well with a variety of side dishes, such as mashed potatoes, steamed rice, or a crisp green salad.
