Enjoy a light and vibrant dish featuring a perfectly seared cod fillet accompanied by tender steamed asparagus and a refreshing squeeze of lemon. The subtly crisp exterior of the cod and the fresh, green asparagus provide a delightful balance of flavors and textures, making it an ideal dinner option for a clean and healthful meal.
INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Cod Fillet
8 spears Asparagus
1 tablespoon Olive Oil
1 Lemon wedge
PREPARATION
Pat the cod fillet dry with a paper towel. Season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is shimmering, gently place the cod fillet in the pan and sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side until a golden crust forms and the fish is opaque in the center.
While the cod cooks, steam the asparagus in a steamer or in a pot with a steamer basket over boiling water for about 4-5 minutes until tender yet crisp.
Plate the seared cod alongside the steamed asparagus. Squeeze a lemon wedge over the top for a burst of freshness.
Serve immediately and enjoy the light, balanced flavors of the meal.
