INGREDIENTS
6 oz Cod Fillet
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Panko Breadcrumbs
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon (juice and zest)
1 Garlic Clove
2 Tbsp Fresh Parsley (chopped)
1 Tbsp Fresh Dill (chopped)
1 cup Baby Spinach
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, combine the whole wheat panko breadcrumbs, chopped parsley, chopped dill, minced garlic, lemon zest, and a light drizzle of olive oil. Mix until well combined.
Pat the cod fillet dry with a paper towel. Season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
Place the cod on the prepared baking sheet and gently press the herb and breadcrumb mixture over the top of the fillet, ensuring an even coat.
Drizzle a little more olive oil over the cod and squeeze fresh lemon juice evenly over the fish.
Bake the cod in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
While the cod is baking, prepare the side salad by combining baby spinach and cherry tomatoes in a bowl. Toss with a pinch of salt, a drizzle of olive oil, and additional lemon juice if desired.
Once baked, remove the cod from the oven and plate alongside the fresh salad. Garnish with additional chopped parsley if desired and serve immediately.
