INGREDIENTS
6 oz Cod Fillet
1/4 cup Shelled Pistachios
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Orange Juice
1 tsp Fresh Ginger
1 tsp Honey
1 tsp Lemon Zest
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) for finishing the dish if needed or keep warm.
Place the pistachios in a food processor and pulse until coarsely chopped. Transfer to a shallow dish.
Season the cod fillet lightly with salt and pepper. Press the top side of the cod firmly into the chopped pistachios to form a crust.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place the cod, crusted side down, in the skillet and sear for about 2-3 minutes until the pistachio crust turns golden.
Carefully flip the cod and lower the heat slightly. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the fish is almost cooked through. If necessary, transfer to the preheated oven for another 2 minutes to ensure doneness.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the fresh orange juice, grated fresh ginger, honey, and lemon zest to create the citrus-ginger sauce.
Remove the cod from the skillet, plate it, and drizzle the citrus-ginger sauce over the top. Serve immediately.
