Baked Cod Casserole

Golden onions simmer in white wine until meltingly soft, then cradle tender cod under a golden crust of thyme scented crumbs and melted Gruyere. Each bite tastes buttery, savory, and bright with herbal perfume.

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • 2 medium onions, very thinly sliced
  • 1 cup dry white wine
  • 1 1/4 lb cod (see Tip), cut into 4 pieces
  • 2 tsp chopped fresh thyme
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 1/2 cup finely chopped whole-wheat country bread, (about 2 slices)
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 cup finely shredded Gruyere, or Swiss cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and cook, stirring often, until just starting to soften, 5 to 7 minutes. Add wine, increase heat to high and cook, stirring often, until the wine is slightly reduced, 2 to 4 minutes.
  3. Place cod on the onions and sprinkle with thyme, salt and pepper. Cover the pan tightly with foil; transfer to the oven and bake for 12 minutes.
  4. Toss bread with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, paprika and garlic powder in a medium bowl. Spread the bread mixture over the fish and top with cheese. Bake, uncovered, until the fish is opaque in the center, about 10 minutes more.
