I don't find that cod has a ton of flavor, but what I like about it is that you can usually find it fresh, wild and at a decent price. I also kind of like to think of it as a blank canvas- you can really do a lot with it. This recipe is super tasty and I love the crunch that the pecans give it. If you don't want to buy all three herbs, it would still be flavorful with just one!
