INGREDIENTS
6 oz Cod Fillet
1 cup Broccoli
3/4 cup cooked Quinoa
1/2 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley
1 clove Garlic
1 pinch Black Pepper
1 pinch Salt
PREPARATION
Prepare the quinoa by cooking it according to package instructions. Once cooked, stir in lemon juice, chopped fresh parsley, and minced garlic for a refreshing herb flavor.
Steam the broccoli until it is bright green and tender, about 4-5 minutes.
Pat the cod fillet dry with paper towels. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the cod fillet in the pan. Sear it for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily.
Plate the seared cod alongside the steamed broccoli and a serving of lemon herb quinoa. Garnish with an extra squeeze of lemon if desired, and serve immediately.
