INGREDIENTS

7 ounces Cod Fillet

1.5 cups Asparagus spears

1.5 teaspoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil

2 cloves Garlic, minced

1 tablespoon Lemon Juice

Pinch of Salt and Black Pepper

Fresh Parsley for garnish

PREPARATION

• 1

  Pat the cod fillets dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and black pepper.

• 2

  Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.

• 3

  Place the cod in the hot skillet and sear for 3 to 4 minutes until a golden-brown crust forms.

• 4

  Carefully flip the cod fillets and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

• 5

  While the fish cooks, steam the asparagus spears in a steamer basket for 4 to 5 minutes until they are tender-crisp and vibrant green.

• 6

  Add the minced garlic to the skillet during the last minute of cooking the fish, stirring constantly to avoid burning.

• 7

  Remove the skillet from heat, squeeze the fresh lemon juice over the fish, and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley.

• 8

  Serve the pan-seared cod immediately alongside the steamed asparagus.
