Seared Cod Fillet with Roasted Asparagus and Lemon
Enjoy a light yet satisfying dinner featuring an 8-ounce cod fillet, seared to a delicate golden crust and served alongside oven-roasted asparagus drizzled with a hint of olive oil and finished with a refreshing squeeze of lemon. The dish balances subtle citrus notes with the fresh, earthy flavor of asparagus for a bright, healthy meal.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz Cod Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1.5 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 wedge Lemon
PREPARATION
Pat the 8-ounce cod fillet dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the cod fillet skin-side down (if skin is present) and sear for about 3-4 minutes until golden. Flip and cook for an additional 3 minutes until opaque and flaky.
While the cod is cooking, preheat your oven to 425°F. Toss the asparagus in a bowl with 1.5 teaspoons of extra virgin olive oil, and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Spread the asparagus on a baking sheet in a single layer and roast for about 8-10 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
Plate the seared cod fillet alongside the roasted asparagus. Squeeze a fresh wedge of lemon over the top of the fish and asparagus for a vibrant finish.
Serve immediately and enjoy this nutritious, flavorful dinner!
