INGREDIENTS
6 oz Cod Fillet
8 Asparagus Spears
2 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1/2 medium Lemon
Salt and Pepper (to taste)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Place the cod fillet on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Lightly season with salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of lemon zest.
Arrange the asparagus spears around the cod. Drizzle 1 tsp of olive oil over the asparagus and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the cod fillet.
Cut the lemon in half and squeeze the juice over both the cod and asparagus for a bright, citrusy flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the cod flakes easily with a fork and the asparagus is tender with slight crisp edges.
While the cod and asparagus are baking, prepare 1/2 cup of cooked quinoa if not already ready.
Plate the baked cod alongside the roasted lemon asparagus and a serving of quinoa. Enjoy immediately.
