Seared Cod Fillet with Roasted Asparagus
Pan-seared cod fillets seasoned with garlic and lemon, served with oven-roasted asparagus spears for a light meal with a delicate, flaky texture.
INGREDIENTS
7.5 oz Cod Fillet
150g Asparagus spears
1.5 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Pinch of Sea Salt and Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Trim the woody ends off the asparagus and toss them on the baking sheet with half of the olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Roast the asparagus for 10-12 minutes until tender but still crisp.
While the asparagus roasts, pat the cod fillets completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the cod in the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms, then carefully flip.
Add the minced garlic to the pan and cook for 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Squeeze the lemon juice over the fish and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Serve the seared cod immediately alongside the roasted asparagus.
