It would help if you prepared the oven before baking the Codfish. To make the baked stuffed cod with Ritz crackers, preheat the microwave oven at 350 degrees to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Take a small baking pan and grease the pan with butter. Instead of butter, you can also use oil. At least you need to use five tablespoons full of butter.
After that, peel the skin off. After that, rinse the fillets of the fish with cold water. Then pat the fillets with your hands to dry them properly.
Next, remove the pin bones from the fillet to make it ideal for preparation.
Place the fish on the pan, and then sprinkle the salt all over the fillet according to your taste.
To process further, you need to melt the unsalted butter.
Take the packet of Ritz crackers. Crush them well and then place them in a bowl. Usually, in a container, you will find a total of 34 crackers.
After this, mix the melted butter and the crushed Ritz crackers thoroughly.
Rub the mixture all over the fillet or the pieces of fillet.
Press the fish fillet well to get the desired shape.
Finally, put the bowl in the microwave oven; as we mentioned earlier, the heat increases between 350 degrees Fahrenheit and 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Bake the fish for precisely 20 minutes.
Once you finish the baking process, serve the baked cod with ritz crackers with lemon and garnish the dish with finely chopped parsley. Spread the parsley all over the plate on which you serve the baked cod with butter and ritz crackers. This garnishing part is entirely optional.
Sometimes you can slightly change the classic recipe. You can add this twist by mixing the fish fillet with crushed potato chips instead of crushed Ritz. You can also use both potato chips and Ritz. Half a cup of potato chips will be enough to cover a 2-pound fillet of Codfish.
