Seared Cod with Steamed Broccoli and Lemon Zest
Enjoy succulent seared cod paired with tender steamed broccoli, brightened with a sprinkle of fresh lemon zest. This lean, clean dinner brings out the mild sweetness of the cod and the natural crunch of broccoli, finished with a touch of olive oil to enhance the flavors without overpowering the delicate seafood.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz Cod Fillet
1 cup Broccoli
0.5 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Lemon Zest
PREPARATION
Pat the cod fillet dry with paper towels to ensure a good sear.
Season the cod lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add 0.5 teaspoon of olive oil.
Place the cod in the skillet skin-side down (if applicable) and sear for 2-3 minutes until a light crust forms, then flip and sear the other side for another 2-3 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily.
While searing the fish, steam 1 cup of broccoli until it is bright green and just tender, about 3-4 minutes.
Transfer the seared cod to a plate, garnish with freshly grated lemon zest, and serve alongside the steamed broccoli.
