Istruzioni
- 1.Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Rinse the quinoa under cold water. In a small pot, combine the rinsed quinoa and 200ml of water or broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed.
- 2.On a large baking sheet, toss the chopped bell pepper, zucchini, cherry tomatoes, and red onion with 20ml of olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- 3.Roast the vegetables for 15 minutes, tossing halfway through, until they start to soften and char slightly.
- 4.Pat the cod fillets dry. Rub them with the remaining 10ml of olive oil and season lightly with pepper. Make space on the baking sheet and place the fillets among the vegetables.
- 5.Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for another 10-12 minutes, or until the cod is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
- 6.Fluff the cooked quinoa with a fork. Serve the baked cod and roasted vegetables over a bed of quinoa. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top and garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
