Baked Cod with Lemon-Herb Crust, Roasted Asparagus & Couscous

Baked Cod with Lemon-Herb Crust, Roasted Asparagus & Couscous

By Filiberto Rios

Total: 35 minutes
Main CourseSeafoodHealthy

Ingredients

  • 2 pieces (140 g each) Cod fillets
  • 1.5 cups cooked Whole wheat couscous
  • 300 g Asparagus
  • 1 cup Breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon zest
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon juice

Instructions

1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2

In a small bowl, mix breadcrumbs, chopped parsley, lemon zest, and 1 tablespoon olive oil until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

3

Place cod fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Brush each fillet with olive oil, then press the breadcrumb-herb mixture on top to form a crust.

4

Spread asparagus on the baking sheet around the cod. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

5

Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and the crust is golden brown, and the asparagus is tender.

6

While the cod and asparagus are baking, reheat the whole wheat couscous if needed, adding a splash of water to make it fluffy.

7

Once everything is done, plate the cod and asparagus alongside the couscous. Sprinkle with lemon juice before serving.
