Seared Cod Fillet with Steamed Green Beans and Herb Quinoa
Savor a Mediterranean-inspired dinner featuring a perfectly seared cod fillet, accompanied by steamed green beans and a fragrant herb quinoa. Finished with a refreshing nonfat Greek yogurt lemon herb sauce, this dish is a balanced blend of delicate fish, vibrant vegetables, and nutty quinoa that captures the essence of Portuguese coastal flavors.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Cod Fillet
1 cup Steamed Green Beans
1 cup Cooked Quinoa
1/3 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Pat the cod fillet dry and season lightly with salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat with the olive oil. Once hot, add the cod fillet and sear for 3-4 minutes per side until cooked through and golden on the outside.
While the cod is cooking, steam the green beans until they are tender yet crisp, about 5-6 minutes.
Prepare cooked quinoa if not already done; fluff with a fork and mix in chopped fresh herbs such as parsley or dill for a Mediterranean touch.
In a small bowl, combine the nonfat Greek yogurt with a dash of lemon juice, chopped herbs, salt, and pepper to create a light, refreshing sauce.
Plate the quinoa and top with the seared cod, arrange the steamed green beans alongside, and drizzle the yogurt herb sauce lightly over the fish. Serve immediately.
