Servings: persons

6 cod fish fillets (not necessary to thaw if using frozen)
6 cups water
1 1/4 cups sugar
2 tablespoons salt
1/2 cup butter, plus
6 tablespoons butter, melted
1 tablespoon finely minced onion (I use flakes if I have to)
1/3 cup minced crabmeat (I used canned)
1/2 tablespoon dried parsley or 1 tablespoon finely minced fresh parsley
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon dill weed (barely a smidgen in my book)
12 garlic butter flavored Ritz crackers, crushed
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/8 - 1/4 cup grated parmesan-romano cheese mix

1
Preheat oven to 400u00b0F.
2
Dissolve the sugar and salt in the water then pour over the cod fillets in a large saucepan.
3
Bring to a boil (which may take a while if using frozen fillets).
4
Boil 4 to 5 minutes.
5
Scoop fish out and drain very well, blotting as necessary.
6
Place in a baking dish and brush with 6 Tbs of melted butter (must be the real cahoona, not margarine).
7
While the fish comes to boiling point I start on the topping.
8
Melt the rest of the butter in a saucepan and add the onion, saute for 1 minute.
9
Add the crab, parsley, dill, garlic powder and a touch of salt and pepper.
10
Stir for 1 minute.
11
Remove from the heat and add your crushed crackers.
12
I top the buttered fillets with this mixture (you may want to use your hands to pile it high if your fillets are chunky); sprinkle with a little more melted butter and the lemon juice.
13
Sprinkle with parmesan to taste.
14
Place in oven until topping is slightly brown.
