Golden Pan-Seared Cod with Lemon-Herb Butter
Pan-seared cod fillets basted in a velvety lemon-herb ghee sauce, served over fluffy quinoa with crisp-tender asparagus.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz Cod fillet
1 tbsp Ghee
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
1 cup Asparagus spears
0.5 whole Lemon
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 tsp Garlic powder
PREPARATION
Pat the cod fillet completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Heat the olive oil in a stainless steel or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the cod in the pan and sear for 3-4 minutes until a golden-brown crust forms, then carefully flip.
Add the ghee to the pan along with the juice from the lemon and chopped parsley, spooning the melting herb butter over the fish as it finishes cooking for 2 more minutes.
Steam or lightly sauté the asparagus spears in a separate pan until vibrant green and tender.
Serve the golden cod over a bed of warm quinoa, drizzling any remaining lemon-herb butter from the pan over the entire plate.
