I found this recipe on the blog A Mingling of Tastes.  Lance and I are both cod fans and I was looking to make something other than my typical salmon.  This recipe definitely has potential, but it was entirely too lemony for both of us, and I love lemon!  Next time, I would reduce the juice to just that of one lemon.
