INGREDIENTS
7 oz Cod Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
2/3 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tsp Lemon Zest
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley
1 Garlic Clove
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Season the cod fillet with a pinch of salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the cod and sear for about 3-4 minutes per side until the fish is opaque and flakes easily.
While the cod is searing, steam the asparagus until tender-crisp, about 4-5 minutes. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and a little salt after steaming.
In a small bowl, combine the cooked quinoa with lemon zest, chopped fresh parsley, and minced garlic. Stir gently to mix the flavors.
Plate the seared cod alongside the steamed asparagus and a serving of herbed quinoa. Serve immediately and enjoy the delicate blend of flavors.
