Herb-Crusted Lemon Garlic Baked Cod
Enjoy a light yet satisfying dish featuring tender cod fillet encrusted with fresh herbs, lemon zest, and garlic. Baked to perfection and served with a cooling nonfat Greek yogurt sauce, fluffy brown rice, and crisp steamed asparagus for a balanced meal.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Cod Fillet
1 medium Fresh Lemon (zest and juice)
2 Garlic Cloves
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley (chopped)
1 tsp Fresh Thyme (chopped)
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/2 cup Brown Rice (cooked)
1 cup Asparagus (steamed)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon zest, minced garlic, chopped parsley, and thyme. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to create the herb mixture.
Place the cod fillet on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Rub the herb mixture evenly over the top of the fillet.
Bake the cod in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
While the cod bakes, prepare the brown rice according to package instructions if not pre-cooked.
Steam the asparagus until tender yet crisp, about 5-7 minutes.
In a small bowl, stir the nonfat Greek yogurt with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and a pinch of salt to serve as a refreshing sauce.
Plate the baked cod alongside the brown rice and steamed asparagus. Drizzle the Greek yogurt sauce over the cod or serve on the side.
Enjoy your balanced, protein-packed meal!
