Mediterranean Style Alaska Cod Recipe

March 19, 2018 By Shannah Coe 9 Comments

This post was sponsored by Alaska Seafood as part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central and all opinions expressed in my post are my own.

By the time Easter nears, eating fish on Fridays can seem monotonous and boring. Try this Mediterranean style Alaska cod recipe with spinach and artichokes for a flavorful upgrade to the standard fish Friday offerings.

Mediterranean Cod

This recipe is so simple and fast to make. It is perfect for any weeknight meal. Even with all of the “green stuff” (a.k.a vegetables), my kids absolutely loved the flavor and I loved seeing them try a healthier recipe.

Mediterranean Cod

When shopping for cod for this Mediterranean style Alaska cod recipe, I made sure to ask my fishmonger for Alaska cod. Wild-caught Alaska whitefish, like cod and halibut, are sold fresh and frozen year-round providing lots of possibilities and the ability to enjoy Alaska seafood all year round. With Alaska’s cold, pristine waters, you can expect the purest, high-quality seafood. In fact, Alaska’s wild fisheries contribute nearly 60% of all seafood harvested in the United States.

I was a little worried that my kids might reject the dish if they thought the Alaska cod and vegetables were all cooked together (they are a funny bunch) so I cooked the fish in the oven and the vegetable mixture on the stovetop. However, you can very easily combine all the ingredients and bake in the oven with equally delicious results. The key is making sure the lemon butter sauce coats everything before baking if you go the oven route.

Either way you prepare this Mediterranean style Alaska cod recipe, just be sure you first look for Alaska cod when selecting your fish. It will make all the difference in the flavor and quality of your fish.

    I was looking for different way of cooking fish rather than soy sauce flavour. Thank you so much for sharing the recipe. Mediterranean way to cook fish is definitely fresh idea that I would love to try.
