Ingredients

400 g cod fillets 2 fillets
1 lime or lemon (I prefer lemon)
50 g chorizo diced
30 g breadcrumbs
½ tbsp grated parmesan optional (I usually now omit this)
1 clove garlic
1 teaspoon parsley dried
pinch black pepper
pinch salt

Metric - US Customary

Instructions

Squeeze half the lime juice onto the cod and leave in the fridge to marinate for half an hour.
Slice the chorizo and fry in a little oil for a couple of minutes. Add the breadcrumbs and stir well so the flavoured oil coats the breadcrumbs. Continue to cook for another couple of minutes. Then tip onto a plate and leave to cool.
Put the chorizo and breadcrumbs in a food processor and blend until it all resembles breadcrumbs. Then add the parmesan, garlic, parsley, black pepper and salt. Blitz again just to combine all the ingredients.
Put the fish on a greased baking tray. Cover with the breadcrumb mixture and press it down a little.
Bake the fish in the oven at 180C for about 15-18 minutes. Serve with extra lime wedges.
