INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz Cod Fillet
1/2 cup Asparagus
3/4 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/4 Lemon
Salt & Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the cod fillet dry and season both sides lightly with salt and black pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tsp of olive oil.
Place the cod fillet in the skillet and sear for about 2-3 minutes per side until it turns opaque and has a lightly golden crust.
While the cod is searing, steam the asparagus until tender-crisp, approximately 3-4 minutes.
Reheat the pre-cooked quinoa gently in a saucepan or microwave if needed.
Plate the quinoa and top with the seared cod. Arrange the steamed asparagus on the side, and finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the cod for brightness.
Serve immediately and enjoy a healthy, balanced dinner.
