Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    If you don't have any cooked fish on hand, here's how to cook it quickly and easily: Heat oven to 375°F. Place fish in a baking dish; drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake uncovered 12 to 15 minutes or until fish flakes easily with fork. Cool to room temperature. Pat with paper towels to remove excess moisture and use as directed.
  • tip 2
    Turn these cod cakes into festive fish burgers by serving them in brioche buns and top them with the aioli.
