Upute za pripremu
- 1.Rinse the lentils under cold water. In a medium saucepan, combine the lentils and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until tender but not mushy. Drain any excess liquid.
- 2.While the lentils cook, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a small pan over medium heat. Sauté the chopped red onion and minced garlic for 3-4 minutes until softened and fragrant.
- 3.Pat the cod fillets dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and pepper. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place the cod fillets skin-side down (if applicable) and cook for 3-4 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily.
- 4.In a bowl, combine the cooked lentils, sautéed onion and garlic, chopped walnuts, fresh parsley, and lemon juice. Mix gently and season with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
- 5.To serve, spoon a generous amount of the warm lentil salsa onto two plates. Carefully place a pan-seared cod fillet on top of the salsa. Serve immediately.
