Lemon-Herb Crusted Baked Cod with Roasted Vegetables
Savor a delicate fillet of cod enveloped in a zesty lemon-herb breadcrumb crust, perfectly paired with a medley of roasted seasonal vegetables. This light yet satisfying meal yields bright flavors and a balance of textures from tender fish to caramelized veggies.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz Cod Fillet
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley, minced
1 tsp Fresh Thyme Leaves
1 cup Zucchini, sliced
1 cup Red Bell Pepper, sliced
1/2 cup Red Onion, sliced
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
In a shallow dish, combine the whole wheat breadcrumbs, minced fresh parsley, thyme leaves, and lemon juice. Add a drizzle of olive oil from the measured teaspoon and mix well.
Pat the cod fillet dry with a paper towel, then season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
Press the breadcrumb mixture evenly onto the top of the cod fillet to form a crust.
Place the crusted cod on one side of the baking tray.
In a bowl, toss the sliced zucchini, red bell pepper, and red onion with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Arrange the vegetables on the other side of the tray.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the cod flakes easily with a fork and the vegetables are tender with a slight char.
Remove from the oven, plate the cod alongside the roasted vegetables, and garnish with an extra squeeze of lemon if desired.
