If you love fish but want something fun, snackable and family-friendly, these Zesty Cod Bites with Lemon Garlic Aioli are perfect. Think: tender cod coated in a light, crisp crust, seasoned with lemon and herbs, and dipped into a cool, garlicky sauce. They’re easy enough for a weeknight, but tasty enough to serve at a party or game night.
You can bake or pan-fry them, and they work great with fries, salad, or in a wrap.
