Golden Pan-Seared Cod with Zesty Lemon
Pan-seared cod fillets seasoned with turmeric for a vibrant golden hue, served alongside fluffy quinoa and crisp-tender asparagus.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz Cod fillet
1 tbsp Avocado oil
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
2 cups Asparagus
1 tbsp Lemon juice
1 tsp Lemon zest
1 clove Garlic
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.5 tsp Ground turmeric
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Pat the cod fillets dry with a paper towel and season both sides evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and ground turmeric.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with half of the avocado oil.
Add the trimmed asparagus to the skillet and sauté for 5-6 minutes until crisp-tender and bright green, then remove from the pan and set aside.
Add the remaining avocado oil to the same skillet and place the cod fillets in, searing for 3-4 minutes without moving them until a golden crust forms.
Flip the fish carefully, then add the minced garlic and lemon zest to the pan, cooking for another 3 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily.
Plate the cod over the warm cooked quinoa and sautéed asparagus, finishing with a drizzle of fresh lemon juice and a sprinkle of chopped parsley.
