There was too much sauce for the amount of fish. The parsley garlic mixture was quite nice but the flavor was way too diluted by the roux. You could modify this recipe but you may as well just do a an oven roasted cod with a chimichurri sauce .

The taste of parsley mixture was overpowered by the roux. Did not have much flavor although certain parts of the recipe were quite helpful; especially searing the fish. Texture was excellent. Did not have access to a blender or mortar so entirely by hand; maybe part of the problem.
