Seared Cod with Roasted Asparagus
Enjoy a light yet protein-packed dinner featuring a perfectly seared cod fillet paired with tender roasted asparagus, finished with a drizzle of olive oil and a squeeze of fresh lemon for brightness. This dish brings together delicate flavors and satisfying texture without compromising on your nutritional goals.
INGREDIENTS
10 ounces Cod Fillet (283g)
1 cup Asparagus (134g)
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil (4.5g)
1/4 Lemon
Sea Salt & Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Rinse and trim the asparagus, then toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread evenly on the baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the oven for 10-12 minutes until tender and slightly crisp.
Meanwhile, pat the cod fillet dry with a paper towel, then season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the cod fillet skin-side down (if applicable) and sear for about 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Gently flip the cod and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily.
Plate the seared cod alongside the roasted asparagus, and finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon over the top.
Serve immediately and enjoy your balanced, protein-rich dinner.
