Crispy Baked Cod with Steamed Asparagus
Enjoy a light yet satisfying dinner featuring a crispy baked cod fillet paired with vibrant steamed asparagus and a side of nutty wild rice. This dish is accented with a drizzle of olive oil and a zesty lemon-garlic dressing for an enticing flavor profile without heavy dairy ingredients.
INGREDIENTS
1 cod fillet (225g)
1 cup steamed asparagus (134g)
1/2 cup cooked wild rice (approx. 92g)
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 garlic clove
Salt and black pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
Pat the cod fillet dry with paper towels. Season lightly with salt and black pepper.
Place the cod on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Drizzle 1 tsp of olive oil over the fillet and rub in finely minced garlic.
Bake the cod in the oven for 12-15 minutes or until it flakes easily with a fork and the exterior is lightly crispy.
While the cod is baking, steam the asparagus until tender, about 4-5 minutes.
Prepare the wild rice according to package instructions if not already cooked. If using precooked, gently reheat.
In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice with a pinch of salt and pepper to create a simple dressing.
Plate the baked cod alongside the steamed asparagus and wild rice. Drizzle the lemon dressing over the cod and asparagus before serving.
