Instructions
In a measuring cup or medium mixing bowl, stir together 1/4 cup avocado oil, 1 tsp lime zest, 2 Tbsp lime juice, 1 large clove garlic (minced), 1 1/2 tsp chili powder, 1 tsp ground paprika, 1 1/2 tsp dried oregano, 1/4 tsp black pepper, and 1/2 tsp sea salt until well combined.
Place 1.5 lbs cod fillets in a sealable container or a zip-top bag. Pour the marinade over the fillets, seal the container or bag, and move it around until all fillets are evenly coated.
Refrigerate the sealed, marinated fillets for at least 30 minutes and up to 10 hours.
When ready to bake, position an oven rack in the upper third of the oven (second from the top) and preheat the oven to 400°F.
Transfer the marinated fillets and any remaining marinade into a large casserole dish, arranging the fillets in a single layer.
Bake for 10–15 minutes, or until the fish reaches an internal temperature of 145°F. Insert a digital thermometer into the thickest part of the fillet to check doneness.
Remove from the oven and serve with your choice of side dishes.
