🛒 What You’ll Need

  • 1 lb Fresh Cod fillets 🐟

  • 3 tbsp Butter, melted 🧈
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil 🫒
  • 4 cloves Garlic, minced 🧄
  • 1 large Lemon (half sliced, half juiced) 🍋
  • 1 tsp Paprika & Dried Oregano 🌿

👩‍🍳 Let’s Get Cooking!

  1. Prep the Veggies: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 15-20 minutes until crispy and charred. 🟢🔥
  2. Season the Fish: Pat the cod fillets dry. Season both sides with salt, pepper, and paprika. 🐟✨
  3. Sizzle: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add a little oil and sear the cod for about 3-4 minutes per side until golden and flaky. Remove from the pan. 🍳🔥
  4. The Butter Sauce: In the same skillet, lower the heat and melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in the lemon juice and oregano. 🧈🧄🍋
  5. Combine: Toss the cod back into the sauce to coat it beautifully. 🤤
  6. Assemble: Build your bowls with a base of rice or quinoa, top with the crispy Brussels sprouts and the garlic butter cod. Pour any extra sauce from the pan right over the top! 🍚🐟🌊

💡 Pro-Tip:

Cod is a very delicate fish, so use a wide spatula to flip it gently to keep those beautiful fillets intact! 🧤🐟
