INGREDIENTS
6 oz Cod Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Lentils
6 Asparagus Spears
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the cod fillet dry with paper towels and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the cod fillet, skin side down if applicable, and sear for about 2-3 minutes per side until the fish is opaque and lightly browned. Remove from heat.
While the fish is searing, prepare the asparagus by steaming them in a steamer basket over simmering water for 4-5 minutes until they become bright green and tender-crisp.
In a bowl, combine the cooked lentils with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper and gently toss to mix.
Plate the seared cod with a side of steamed asparagus and a serving of the lentil salad. Serve immediately and enjoy your balanced, protein-packed dinner.
