Ingredients

For the Potatoes

1 and 1/2 pounds baby potatoes, halved
Extra virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
Black pepper, to taste
Dried oregano, to taste

For the Cod

4–5 cod fillets
Salt and pepper, to taste

For the Dressing

3–4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
3–4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
2 garlic cloves, grated
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (optional)

For Serving

Fresh parsley, chopped
Lemon wedges or slices

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Place the potatoes on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, and oregano. Toss to coat evenly and spread in a single layer.

Roast the potatoes for about 25 minutes, or until they begin to soften and develop color.

Season the cod fillets with salt and pepper.

Remove the potatoes from the oven and place the cod fillets on top or alongside the potatoes.

In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, oregano, garlic, salt, pepper, and optional Dijon mustard.

Drizzle the dressing evenly over the cod and potatoes.

Return the pan to the oven and bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the cod is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges.

Notes

Make sure not to overcook the cod—once it flakes easily, it’s done.Cut potatoes evenly so they cook at the same rate.You can use any mild white fish like haddock or halibut if cod is unavailable.

Make-Ahead Tips

Potatoes can be prepped and halved up to 1 day in advance and stored in water in the refrigerator.The dressing can be made up to 2–3 days ahead and stored in the fridge.You can roast the potatoes ahead of time and reheat them briefly before adding the fish and finishing in the oven.

Serve this straight from the sheet pan or transfer to a large platter and drizzle with a little extra olive oil and fresh lemon right before serving. Add a simple Greek salad and warm bread, and you’ve created a beautiful, welcoming meal with minimal effort—the essence of Filoxenia.
