Seared Cod with Steamed Broccoli and Garlic Quinoa
Savor the delicate flavor of seared cod paired with vibrant steamed broccoli and a fragrant garlic-infused quinoa. This dish balances a light, flaky fish with the nutty texture of quinoa and crisp, tender broccoli, all drizzled with aromatic olive oil and a hint of lemon, making it a delicious and nutritious dinner option.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Cod Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1.5 cups Broccoli
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
1 wedge Lemon
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add olive oil.
Pat the cod fillet dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Mince the garlic clove.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet, letting it infuse the oil for about 30 seconds before placing the fillet in the pan.
Sear the cod for approximately 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Meanwhile, steam the broccoli until tender yet crisp, about 5 minutes.
In a small bowl, toss the pre-cooked quinoa with any remaining garlic (or a light drizzle of olive oil), a squeeze of lemon, salt, and pepper to enhance its flavor.
Plate the seared cod alongside a serving of garlic quinoa and steamed broccoli.
Garnish with an additional wedge of lemon if desired and serve immediately.
