Golden Pan-Seared Cod with Zesty Lemon
Pan-seared cod fillets seasoned with aromatic garlic and bright lemon, served alongside fluffy quinoa and crisp-tender asparagus for a refreshing meal.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz Cod fillet
1 tbsp Avocado oil
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
2 cup Asparagus spears
1 tbsp Lemon juice
1 tsp Lemon zest
1 clove Garlic
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 tsp Red pepper flakes
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Pat the cod fillets dry with paper towels and season both sides with sea salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place cod in the pan and sear for 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms, then flip carefully.
Add minced garlic to the pan and cook for 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the fish and sprinkle with lemon zest before removing from heat.
Steam asparagus spears for 4-5 minutes until bright green and crisp-tender.
Serve the pan-seared cod over a bed of warm quinoa with the asparagus on the side, garnished with fresh parsley.
