INGREDIENTS
9 oz Cod Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1 tbsp Olive Oil
2 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Toss the asparagus with half of the olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet in a single layer.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, until tender and slightly crisp.
While the asparagus roasts, pat the cod fillet dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the cod fillet and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the seared cod during the last minute of cooking.
Plate the cod fillet alongside the roasted asparagus, drizzle a little extra lemon juice over the dish if desired, and serve immediately.
