Instructions:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. Begin by heating your campfire to a moderate level. Ideally, you\u2019ll cook over glowing embers rather than open flames to provide even heat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Brush a large piece of aluminum foil with olive oil or melted butter to prevent the fish from sticking. Place your cod fillet in the center of the foil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Season the cod generously with salt and pepper. Top the fillet with a scattering of finely chopped garlic and fresh herbs of your choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Lay thin slices of lemon over the herbs and garlic, providing a citrusy zest that will infuse the fish as it cooks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Drizzle the cod with olive oil or melted butter for added moisture and flavor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Carefully wrap the foil around the cod, sealing it well to form a packet. Ensure the foil is secure to avoid leaks and allow the fish to steam perfectly in its juices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Place the foil packet on a grill grate over the embers of your campfire. If you don\u2019t have a grate, you can place the packet directly on the embers, but turn it occasionally for even cooking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. Allow the fish to cook for about 10-15 minutes. The exact time will depend on the thickness of your fillets and the heat of the embers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9. Check for doneness by carefully opening the foil packet \u2014 the fish should flake easily with a fork and appear opaque throughout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10. Once cooked, remove the packet from the heat, open the foil carefully to release the steam, and let it cool for a moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

11. Serve the savory cod straight from the foil for easy cleanup, complementing your main dish with sides like grilled vegetables or a fresh salad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
