Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash and peel the potatoes if desired, then cut them into bite-sized pieces.
- Place the potatoes on a baking sheet. Drizzle with half of the olive oil, and season with a dash of salt and black pepper. Toss to coat the potatoes evenly.
- Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on the baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, or until they start to become tender and golden brown.
- While the potatoes are roasting, wash the broccoli and cut it into bite-sized florets.
- After the initial 25 minutes of roasting the potatoes, add the broccoli florets to the same baking sheet, drizzle with a little more olive oil if necessary, and toss everything together.
- In a small bowl, combine the remaining olive oil and paprika. Brush this mixture evenly over both sides of the cod fillets.
- Lightly season the cod fillets with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
- Place the prepared cod fillets on a separate, lightly greased, or lined baking sheet.
- Transfer the baking sheet with the cod to the oven, alongside the potato and broccoli baking sheet.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cod flakes easily with a fork and is opaque throughout.
- Ensure the potatoes are crispy and the broccoli is tender. If needed, you can roast them for an additional 5-10 minutes.
- Plate the roasted potatoes and broccoli alongside the paprika cod fillets.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious and healthy meal!
Tips:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) before you start preparing the ingredients to save time.
- Cut the potatoes into even-sized pieces to ensure they roast evenly.
- Toss the potatoes in a small amount of olive oil and season them with salt and black pepper before roasting them for about 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
- Blanch the broccoli in boiling water for 2-3 minutes before roasting to keep its vibrant green color and tender-crisp texture.
- Coat the cod fillets with paprika and a drizzle of olive oil, then season with salt and black pepper. Place them on a baking sheet and bake for 10-15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the cod is cooked through. It should reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
- For an extra flavor boost, you can add minced garlic and lemon zest to the olive oil mixture used to season the cod.
With its harmonious blend of flavors and textures, paprika cod with roasted potatoes and broccoli is sure to become a favorite in your household. Not only is it delicious, but it's also packed with nutrients, making it a healthy option for any meal. Serve this dish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice or a side of tartar sauce for an extra burst of freshness. Enjoy your meal!
