INGREDIENTS
6 oz Cod Fillet (170g)
2 tbsp Fresh Mixed Herbs
1 cup Asparagus (134g)
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa (93g)
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Pat the cod fillet dry with a paper towel. In a small bowl, combine the chopped fresh herbs with a pinch of salt, pepper, and the lemon juice.
Rub the herb mixture evenly over the cod fillet, ensuring it is well-coated.
Place the cod on a lightly greased baking sheet. In another bowl, toss the asparagus with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Arrange the asparagus around the cod on the baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cod is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, and the asparagus is tender.
Meanwhile, prepare the quinoa if not already cooked. Warm it gently if needed.
Plate the baked cod with a serving of roasted asparagus and a side of quinoa. Squeeze a little extra lemon over the top for added brightness, if desired.
