Golden Pan-Seared Cod with Lemon-Herb Butter
Flaky cod fillets pan-seared until golden and finished with a bright lemon-herb ghee sauce, served alongside nutty quinoa and crisp-tender roasted asparagus.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz Cod fillet
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
1 cup Asparagus
1 tbsp Ghee
1 tsp Avocado oil
1 tbsp Lemon juice
1 tsp Lemon zest
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
0.5 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the cod fillets completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
Heat a medium non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the avocado oil.
Place the cod in the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes per side until the exterior is golden brown and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
While the fish cooks, steam or lightly sauté the asparagus in a separate pan with a splash of water until crisp-tender.
Remove the cod from the pan and set aside. Lower the heat to low and add the ghee, lemon juice, lemon zest, and fresh parsley to the skillet.
Whisk the sauce for 30 seconds until the ghee is melted and aromatic.
Plate the cooked quinoa and asparagus, top with the pan-seared cod, and drizzle the lemon-herb butter sauce over the fish.
