For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the Pecorino topping. If you don't have Pecorino Romano cheese on hand, Parmesan cheese can be substituted, though the flavor will be slightly different. To ensure even cooking, use cod fillets that are of uniform thickness. Serve with a side of roasted vegetables or a simple salad for a complete and satisfying meal.
