1 teaspoon garlic powder
0.25 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoon olive oil

Directions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and lightly grease a baking dish to prevent sticking.
- In a bowl, mix together Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, parsley, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to form a crust mixture.
- Brush each cod fillet with olive oil to ensure that the crust sticks well to the surface.
- Evenly coat the top of each cod fillet with the Parmesan mixture, pressing lightly to adhere.
- Place the coated cod fillets in the prepared dish and bake in preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes.
- Check if the fish flakes easily with a fork to determine doneness, then remove from the oven.
- Let it cool slightly before serving, garnishing with additional parsley if desired.
