The dish I chose to feature today is Mexican style Cilantro Lime Cod<\/strong><\/em>. Cod is one of those fishes that is light tasting but still has a lovely flavor. It is also extremely lean as 3 ounces of cooked Cod equal only 131 calories. Cilantro and Lime are also great flavors that compliment this light buttery fish.<\/p>\n Ingredients:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n 4 cod or haddock fillets (2 pounds)<\/p>\n 1\/4 teaspoon pepper<\/p>\n 1 tablespoon dried minced onion<\/p>\n 1 garlic clove, minced<\/p>\n 1 tablespoon olive oil<\/p>\n 1-1\/2 teaspoons ground cumin<\/p>\n 1\/4 cup minced fresh cilantro<\/p>\n 2 limes, thinly sliced<\/p>\n 2 tablespoons butter, melted<\/p>\n Directions:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n 1. Place each fillet on a 15-in. x 12-in. piece of heavy duty foil. Sprinkle with pepper. In a small saucepan, saute onion and garlic in oil; stir in cumin.<\/p>\n 2. Spoon over fillets; sprinkle with cilantro. Place lime slices over each; drizzle with butter.<\/p>\n 3. Fold foil around fish and seal tightly. Place on a baking sheet. Bake at 375 degrees for 35-40 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.<\/p>\n Serves 8.<\/p>\n Remember tradition is important around the holidays. It reminds us of the importance of family. Although I’m sure my Grandmother wasn’t cooking up Mexican style fish dishes, for my Mom it still means a lot that she has continued this tradition.<\/p>\n Happy Holidays!<\/p>\n Recipe Source: The Taste of Home Cookbook<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n Image Credit: iStockPhoto<\/p>\n Post from: Blisstree<\/a><\/p>\n![\"iStock_000007697032Small\"](\"http:\/\/images1.blisstree.com\/files\/2009\/12\/iStock_000007697032Small.jpg\")
