Seared Cod Fillet with Roasted Asparagus
Enjoy a delicate, protein-packed seared cod fillet paired with crisp roasted asparagus. The cod is lightly seasoned and perfectly seared to lock in moisture and flavor, while tender asparagus spears are roasted with a touch of olive oil to bring out their natural sweetness. This clean, balanced meal is ideal for a lean dinner option.
INGREDIENTS
8 ounces Cod Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
0.5 teaspoon Olive Oil
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Rinse the cod fillet and pat it dry with a paper towel. Season both sides lightly with salt and black pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the cod fillet skin-side down and sear for about 2-3 minutes until a light golden crust forms.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven (or move the cod to a baking sheet) and roast for an additional 4-5 minutes until the fish is just opaque in the center.
While the cod roasts, trim the woody ends of the asparagus. Toss them in a small bowl with the olive oil, a pinch of salt, and black pepper.
Spread the asparagus on a baking sheet in a single layer and roast in the oven for about 8-10 minutes until tender-crisp.
Serve the seared cod fillet alongside the roasted asparagus while warm. Enjoy this lean and flavorful dinner option.
