Seared Cod with Zucchini Noodles and Lemon
Enjoy a light yet satisfying dish featuring beautifully seared cod paired with tender zucchini noodles. The fresh burst of lemon and subtle olive oil drizzle elevates this plate into a perfect balance of savory, zesty, and nutrient-packed flavors.
INGREDIENTS
230g Cod Fillet
1 medium Zucchini
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon
Salt and Pepper (to taste)
PREPARATION
Pat the cod fillet dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt, pepper, and a pinch of garlic powder if desired.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Place the cod fillet skin-side down (if applicable) in the pan and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Carefully flip the cod and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
While the cod cooks, use a spiralizer or peeler to create zucchini noodles from the zucchini. Optionally, quickly sauté the noodles in a separate pan for 1-2 minutes to slightly soften them, or serve raw for maximum crunch.
Squeeze the juice of 1/2 lemon over both the cod and zucchini noodles.
Plate the cod beside a serving of zucchini noodles, drizzle with any remaining pan juices and extra olive oil if desired, then serve immediately.
