Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Cod fillets
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 whole Lemon
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves
- 2 cups Broccoli florets
- 2 large Carrots
- 1 medium Red bell pepper
- 1 medium Zucchini
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 2 teaspoons Fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, combine 3 tablespoons of olive oil with the juice from 1 lemon. Finely mince the garlic and add it to the mixture. Set aside for flavor infusion.
Prepare the vegetables: slice the carrots, deseed and slice the red bell pepper, and cut the zucchini into half-moons. Keep broccoli florets bite-sized.
Place the broccoli florets, carrot slices, red bell pepper, zucchini, and cherry tomatoes onto the prepared baking sheet.
Drizzle the vegetables with half of the lemon-garlic olive oil mixture. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of salt, 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper, and 2 teaspoons of fresh thyme. Toss to coat evenly.
Push the vegetables to make space for the cod fillets. Brush each fillet with the remaining lemon-garlic olive oil mixture and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cod is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, and vegetables are tender.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes. Serve each cod fillet with a generous portion of mixed vegetables. Squeeze extra lemon over the top if desired.
