Pan-Seared Cod with Lemon-Herb Sauce
Tender cod fillets pan-seared until golden and flaky, drizzled with a bright lemon-caper sauce and served alongside crisp roasted asparagus and fluffy quinoa.
INGREDIENTS
9 oz Cod fillet
0.5 cup Cooked quinoa
1 cup Asparagus spears
1 tbsp Ghee
1 tsp Olive oil
1 tbsp Lemon juice
1 tsp Lemon zest
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
1 tsp Capers
1 clove Garlic
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 olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the cod fillets in the skillet and sear for 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until the fish is golden brown and flakes easily with a fork.
While the fish cooks, steam or lightly sauté the asparagus spears in a separate pan until tender-crisp and vibrant green.
Remove the cod from the skillet and set aside on a plate; reduce the skillet heat to medium.
Add the ghee to the skillet along with the minced garlic and capers, sautéing for 1 minute until fragrant.
Whisk in the lemon juice, lemon zest, and fresh parsley to create a light pan sauce.
Plate the cod alongside the fluffy cooked quinoa and roasted asparagus, spooning the warm lemon-herb sauce over the fish before serving.
