Zesty Lemon-Herb Baked Cod with Roasted Asparagus
Cod fillets baked with a bright lemon-herb crust alongside tender roasted asparagus and fluffy quinoa for a vibrant, citrus-infused meal.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz Cod fillet
1.5 cups Asparagus
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
1.5 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
1 tsp Lemon zest
2 cloves Garlic
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Snap the woody ends off the asparagus spears and arrange them on one side of the prepared baking sheet.
Pat the cod fillet dry with a paper towel to ensure a perfect roast and place it on the other side of the sheet.
In a small glass bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, and finely chopped parsley.
Drizzle the lemon-herb mixture generously over both the cod fillet and the asparagus spears, tossing the vegetables slightly to coat.
Season everything evenly with the sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper.
Roast in the center of the oven for 12 to 15 minutes until the asparagus is tender-crisp and the cod flakes easily with a fork.
Transfer the warm cooked quinoa to a plate and top with the roasted cod and asparagus, drizzling any remaining pan juices over the top before serving.
