  • Make 4 tinfoil packets by placing two pieces of tinfoil on top of each other, placing one cod in the center of each. Drizzle each fillet with 1 teaspoon of olive oil and close the packets tightly.

  • Place the packets on the grill, folded side up, and grill until the fish is opaque and flaky, about 5-10 minutes, depending on the size and thickness of the fillet. Once cooked, set aside to rest and cool for 5 minutes.
  • While the fish cools, mix all the slaw ingredients (minus the parsley) in a large bowl. After that, stir in the parsley.
