I use panko crumbs for oven-baked cod fillets - perfect for that
purpose. I rub olive oil all over the fillet and then mix panko,
lemon zest, a few parsley flakes and some garlic powder together, and
dredge the fillets in that - bake at 350 F. until done - about 15-25
minutes, depending on thickness of the fish.
