Baked Cod with Herb-Crusted Quinoa and Steamed Asparagus
Flaky cod fillets baked with a savory herb and almond crust, served with fluffy quinoa and tender asparagus finished with a bright squeeze of lemon.
INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Cod Fillet
0.3 cup dry Quinoa
150 grams Asparagus
1.5 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Almond Flour
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
Fresh Parsley and Lemon Zest
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Rinse the quinoa and cook it in a small pot with 0.6 cups of water until all liquid is absorbed and the grain is fluffy.
In a small bowl, combine the almond flour, half of the olive oil, lemon zest, and chopped fresh parsley to create a crumbly herb topping.
Place the cod fillet on the prepared baking sheet, pat dry, and press the almond-herb mixture firmly onto the top of the fish.
Bake the cod for 10 to 12 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
While the fish bakes, steam the asparagus spears over boiling water for 4 to 5 minutes until tender-crisp and vibrant green.
Toss the cooked quinoa with the remaining olive oil and a splash of lemon juice.
Plate the herb-crusted cod alongside the quinoa and asparagus, finishing with an extra squeeze of fresh lemon.
