Basil-Crusted Cod

Serves 4

4 cod or halibut filets, about 1/2 inch thick
1/3 cup fresh basil, finely chopped
1/4 cup red onions, finely chopped
3 Tbsp uncooked cornmeal
1 Tbsp olive oil
2 tsp fresh lime juice
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper

1. Preheat the oven to 500°F. Spray a 9-inch square baking dish with nonstick spray. Place the fish in the baking dish.

2. Combine the basil, onion, cornmeal, oil, lime juice, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Spoon the mixture evenly on top of each piece of fish. Bake, uncovered, until the fish is just opaque in the center and lightly browned and crisp on top, about 10 minutes.

Served with grits and salad.

Results: This was very easy to make, but only mediocre tasting. I was more excited about eating the grits. I doubt I'll repeat it.
