Enjoy a light yet flavorful dinner featuring tender cod seared to perfection paired with crisp roasted asparagus, brightened with a fresh sprinkle of lemon zest. This dish marries simple ingredients with a sophisticated touch—perfect for a balanced and vibrant meal.
INGREDIENTS
7 ounces Cod Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil (divided)
1/2 Lemon for zest
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Trim the asparagus and toss them with half a tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them out on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 10 minutes or until tender and slightly crispy.
While the asparagus roasts, pat the cod fillet dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat the remaining half tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Sear the cod fillet for about 3 minutes on each side, or until it becomes opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the cod from the skillet and plate alongside the roasted asparagus.
Finish by zesting half a lemon over the cod for a burst of fresh flavor.
