1. This recipe works well with any firm-fleshed white fish, including halibut.
2. If you have frozen cod fillets in your freezer, don't bother defrosting them prior to baking - you can absolutely bake fish fillets frozen and it's actually easier not to over-dry them when you bake them from frozen. Simply add 5-10 minutes to the cooking time.
