Golden Pan-Seared Cod with Lemon-Herb Sauce
Pan-seared cod fillets served with a bright lemon-herb sauce alongside roasted asparagus and fluffy quinoa for a vibrant, citrus-infused meal.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz Cod fillet
1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
0.5 tbsp Ghee
1 cup Asparagus spears
0.5 cup Cherry tomatoes
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the cod fillets thoroughly dry with paper towels and season both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Carefully place the cod in the pan and sear for 3 to 4 minutes per side until the exterior is golden brown and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the cod from the pan and set aside on a warm plate.
In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add the ghee, minced garlic, and halved cherry tomatoes.
Sauté for 2 minutes until the tomatoes begin to soften, then stir in the fresh lemon juice and chopped parsley to create the sauce.
Steam or lightly sauté the asparagus spears in a separate pan with a splash of water until tender-crisp.
Plate the fluffy cooked quinoa, top with the pan-seared cod, and spoon the warm lemon-herb tomato sauce over the fish, serving the asparagus on the side.
