Cod (baked)
1 fillet (140g)Why Cod (baked) shows up in protein-forward diets
Almost no fat at all, which means almost no omega-3s either — cod is a lean-protein play, not an omega-3 play like salmon or sardines.
Serving-size math
A 1 fillet (140g) portion delivers 32.2g of protein and roughly 147 calories. Scaled per 100 calories, that works out to 21.9g of protein — useful for comparing against other foods on a calorie-matched basis rather than a weight-matched one.
Prep tip
Pat completely dry before searing; cod releases a lot of surface moisture and will steam instead of brown if wet.
