Crispy Pan-Seared Cod with Smoky Roasted Cauliflower and Fresh Herb Gremolata
Enjoy a light yet flavorful dish featuring tender cod fillet, perfectly crisped in a sizzling pan, paired with smoky roasted cauliflower. A fresh herb gremolata of parsley, garlic, and lemon zest adds a burst of brightness to each bite, making it a satisfying and balanced meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Atlantic Cod Fillet
1 cup Cauliflower Florets
1 tbsp Olive Oil (for roasting)
1 tsp Olive Oil (for searing)
1/2 tsp Smoked Paprika
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley, chopped
1 Garlic clove, minced
Zest of 1/2 Lemon
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil (1 tbsp), smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet in a single layer.
Roast the cauliflower in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through.
While the cauliflower roasts, pat the cod fillet dry and season both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tsp olive oil. Once hot, carefully place the cod in the pan and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until the outside is slightly crispy and the fish is opaque in the center.
For the gremolata, combine the chopped parsley, minced garlic, and lemon zest in a small bowl.
Plate the crispy cod alongside the smoky roasted cauliflower, and finish by sprinkling the fresh herb gremolata over the cod.
Serve immediately and enjoy your balanced, nutrient-packed meal.
