Golden Pan-Seared Lemon Herb Cod
Pan-seared cod fillets basted in a bright lemon-herb ghee, served alongside nutty quinoa and crisp-tender asparagus for a refreshing and vibrant finish.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz cod fillet
1 tbsp ghee
0.5 cup cooked quinoa
1 cup asparagus
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
1 clove garlic
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Pat the cod fillets dry with a paper towel and season both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat the ghee in a large stainless steel or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Carefully place the cod in the pan and sear for 3 to 4 minutes without moving it to develop a golden crust.
Flip the fillets and add the minced garlic, lemon zest, and lemon juice to the skillet, spooning the flavored ghee over the fish for 2 more minutes.
While the fish cooks, steam the asparagus for 4 to 5 minutes until it reaches a crisp-tender texture.
Plate the cod over the cooked quinoa, serve with the asparagus, and garnish with fresh parsley and the remaining pan juices.
