Instrucciones
- 1.Preheat your oven to 200°C. Rinse the quinoa thoroughly and cook it according to package directions, typically by simmering 100g of quinoa in 200ml of water for about 15 minutes until the water is absorbed.
- 2.On a large baking sheet, toss the sliced fennel, red bell pepper, and red onion with half of the olive oil (15ml), a pinch of salt (if using), and black pepper. Roast for 10 minutes.
- 3.While the vegetables roast, pat the cod fillets dry. In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining olive oil, minced garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, and half of the chopped dill.
- 4.Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Add the cherry tomatoes to the vegetables. Place the cod fillets on the sheet and pour the lemon-dill mixture evenly over the fish.
- 5.Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until the cod is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
- 6.Fluff the cooked quinoa with a fork and divide it between two plates. Top with the roasted vegetables and a cod fillet. Garnish with the remaining fresh dill before serving.
