Lemon Pepper Cod With Vegetable Medley Recipes

LEMON-PEPPER COD WITH VEGETABLE MEDLEY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°.
• Rinse the fish and place on a nonstick baking sheet.
• Sprinkle both sides with lemon-pepper and sprinkle shallots over the top.
• Divide the butter into 4 pats and place one on top of each piece of fish.
• The fish will cook in 15-20 min, depending on how thick it is, so it should be popped into the oven the same time you start the water for the veggies.
• While the fish is cooking, cut the vegetables into bite size pieces.
• Set aside until the final 5 minutes of fish cooking time, but make sure you have 1 quart of water boiling by that point.
• Prepare the sauce by mixing the Green Goddess dressing base with water, let stand a minute, then whisk with light mayonnaise. Place the bowl on the table.
• Once the fish is close, add the vegetables to the boiling water, cook 3-4 min, till carrots are tender.
• Drain without rinsing, place in a small bowl.
• Crumble basil over the top, drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat.
• Divide between 4 plates, add the fish.

LEMON CITRUS COD WITH VEGETABLES

Steps:

• For the marinade: In a small bowl, combine the orange juice, lemon juice, green onions, garlic, olive oil and red pepper flakes.
• For the fish packets: Cut four 12-by-17-inch pieces of aluminum foil; place one piece of fish in the center of each. Sprinkle the fish with salt and pepper. Divide the marinade evenly among the packets (about 1/2 cup for each).
• In a large bowl, toss the string beans, mushrooms, onions and tomatoes with the olive oil. Season the vegetables with salt and pepper, then divide evenly among the packets. For each packet, fold the foil over at the top to close, and then close up the sides to seal completely. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before cooking, to give the fish time to marinate.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Transfer the packets to a baking sheet. Bake until the fish flakes, 12 to 15 minutes. Serve immediately.
