Pan-Seared Cod with Roasted Broccoli and Quinoa
Flaky pan-seared cod served over nutty quinoa and roasted broccoli, finished with a sprinkle of crunchy toasted pumpkin seeds.
INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Cod Fillet
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
1 cup Broccoli Florets
1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Pumpkin Seeds
1 tablespoon Fresh Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
Toss the broccoli florets with half of the olive oil and a pinch of sea salt, then roast for 15-20 minutes until the edges are tender and slightly browned.
Warm your pre-cooked quinoa in a small saucepan or prepare fresh quinoa according to package instructions until fluffy.
Pat the cod fillet completely dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the cod for 3-4 minutes per side until it is golden and opaque.
In a small dry pan, lightly toast the pumpkin seeds over medium heat for 2 minutes until they become fragrant and slightly puffed.
Assemble the meal by placing the quinoa and roasted broccoli in a shallow bowl, topping with the seared cod, and finishing with the toasted pumpkin seeds and a bright squeeze of lemon juice.
