1.5 oz Whole wheat pasta

1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil

1 clove Garlic

0.5 whole Lemon

1 tbsp Fresh parsley

0.25 tsp Sea salt

0.25 tsp Black pepper

PREPARATION

• 1

  Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente.

  While the pasta cooks, pat the cod fillets dry with a paper towel and season both sides evenly with sea salt and black pepper.

• 3

  Heat half of the extra virgin olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

• 4

  Place the cod fillets in the skillet and sear for 3 to 4 minutes per side until the exterior is golden and the fish flakes easily with a fork.

• 5

  Remove the cod from the pan and set aside on a plate; add the remaining olive oil and the minced garlic clove to the same pan.

• 6

  Sauté the garlic for 1 minute until fragrant, then stir in the cooked pasta, the juice from the lemon, and the chopped fresh parsley.

  Toss the pasta thoroughly until well-coated in the zesty lemon sauce and serve immediately topped with the crispy pan-seared cod.
