INGREDIENTS
6.3 ounces cod fillet (180g)
1 cup broccoli (91g)
1/4 cup nonfat Greek yogurt (61g)
2 teaspoons olive oil (9g)
Zest of 1 lemon
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the cod fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the cod fillet in the skillet and sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through. Avoid overcooking to retain moisture.
While the fish is cooking, steam the broccoli in a steamer basket over boiling water for about 4-5 minutes until tender yet crisp.
Once the cod is cooked, transfer it to a plate. Using a microplane or fine grater, zest a lemon over the cod fillet.
For added brightness, dollop a small serving (1/4 cup) of nonfat Greek yogurt on the side or lightly mix into the plated cod.
Serve the seared cod alongside the steamed broccoli, enjoying the fresh burst of lemon zest and the creamy tang of yogurt.
