Crispy Lemon-Herb Baked Cod
Tender cod fillets baked with a zesty lemon-herb almond crust, served alongside roasted asparagus and fluffy quinoa for a bright and satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz Cod fillet
2 tbsp Almond flour
1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp Lemon zest
0.5 tsp Dried parsley
0.25 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 cup Asparagus spears
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Pat the cod fillets thoroughly dry with a paper towel to ensure the almond crust adheres well and becomes crispy.
In a small shallow bowl, whisk together the almond flour, lemon zest, dried parsley, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
Brush the cod fillets with half of the olive oil, then press the top of each fillet into the almond flour mixture until evenly coated.
Place the asparagus spears on one side of the baking sheet, drizzle with the remaining olive oil, and toss with a tiny pinch of salt.
Arrange the crusted cod fillets on the other side of the baking sheet and bake for 12 to 15 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Serve the crispy cod and roasted asparagus over a bed of warm, fluffy quinoa and garnish with an extra squeeze of lemon if desired.
