# Step-by-Step Instructions:
01 - Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking dish with olive oil and set aside.
02 - In a medium bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, lemon zest, lemon juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, honey, soy sauce, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using).
03 - Place the cod fillets in the prepared baking dish in a single layer. Pour the coconut lemon cream sauce evenly over the fillets.
04 - Bake the cod in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The sauce should be bubbling and slightly thickened.
