INGREDIENTS
6 oz Cod Fillet
1/4 cup chopped Unsalted Pistachios
1 tbsp Panko Breadcrumbs
1 large Egg White
2 tbsp Fresh Orange Juice
1 tsp Fresh Grated Ginger
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Lemon Zest
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pat the cod fillet dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt, pepper, and lemon zest.
In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg white until slightly frothy.
In another plate, combine the chopped pistachios with the panko breadcrumbs.
Dip the cod fillet in the egg white, then press it into the pistachio-panko mixture, ensuring an even crust on all sides.
Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Sear the crusted cod for about 1-2 minutes per side until the crust becomes golden.
Transfer the seared cod to the prepared baking sheet and finish cooking in the oven for about 8-10 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
While the cod bakes, prepare the Citrus-Ginger Sauce by combining fresh orange juice, grated ginger, and a pinch of salt in a small saucepan. Warm gently over low heat for 2-3 minutes, just until the flavors meld.
Plate the cod, drizzle the warm citrus-ginger sauce over the top, and serve immediately.
