Crispy Pan-Seared Cod with Zesty Garlic
Savor the delicate flavor of a perfectly pan-seared cod fillet, accentuated with a zesty garlic and lemon blend, paired with tender charred asparagus for a light, crisp dinner that awakens the senses while delivering clean, balanced nutrition.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Cod Fillet
1 tbsp Olive Oil (for cod)
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 cup chopped Asparagus
1 tsp Olive Oil (for asparagus)
PREPARATION
Pat the cod fillet dry and lightly season with salt and pepper if desired.
In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic and lemon juice.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is shimmering, add the cod fillet and sear for about 3 minutes on one side until a crispy golden crust forms.
Flip the cod and pour the garlic-lemon mixture over it, cooking for another 3 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Meanwhile, toss the chopped asparagus with 1 teaspoon of olive oil, and season lightly.
In a separate pan or under a broiler, cook the asparagus for 4-5 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Serve the crispy cod alongside the zesty asparagus, garnishing with any remaining lemon juice if desired.
