Pistachio-Crusted Cod with Lemon-Herb Quinoa and Garlicky Green Beans
Enjoy a vibrant plate featuring a tender 7-ounce cod fillet encrusted in a light pistachio coating, paired with fluffy lemon-herb quinoa and crisp, garlicky green beans. This dish provides a delightful balance of textures and zesty flavors for a nourishing meal.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Cod Fillet
10 g Unsalted Pistachios (finely ground)
3/4 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 cup Green Beans
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 Lemon
1 Clove Garlic
2 Tbsp Fresh Parsley & Dill
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Pat the 7-ounce cod fillet dry. Season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
Finely grind the pistachios in a food processor until reaching a coarse meal. Press the cod fillet into the pistachio mixture to form a crust on one side.
Place the pistachio-crusted side up on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for about 12-15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
While the cod bakes, prepare the lemon-herb quinoa by gently warming the cooked quinoa with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, and the chopped parsley and dill. Drizzle with a little olive oil and stir well.
Steam or sauté the green beans with minced garlic until they are tender-crisp.
To serve, plate the lemon-herb quinoa, top with the baked pistachio-crusted cod, and arrange the garlicky green beans on the side. Optionally, garnish with additional fresh herbs and a lemon wedge.
