Instructies
- 1.Preheat your oven to 200°C. Cook the quinoa according to package instructions, typically by simmering 180g of quinoa in 360ml of water or low-sodium vegetable broth for about 15 minutes until the liquid is absorbed.
- 2.On a large baking sheet, toss the sliced fennel, cherry tomatoes, red bell pepper, and red onion with 20ml of olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, and black pepper. Roast for 15 minutes.
- 3.After 15 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Make space among the vegetables and place the cod fillets on the sheet.
- 4.Drizzle the cod with the remaining 10ml of olive oil and the juice of half a lemon. Season with black pepper. Return the pan to the oven and bake for another 10-12 minutes, or until the cod is opaque and flakes easily.
- 5.Once cooked, fluff the quinoa with a fork. Serve the baked cod and roasted vegetables over a bed of quinoa. Garnish with the chopped fresh dill and a squeeze of the remaining lemon juice before serving.
