Ingredients
- 1 about 6 oz cod fillet
- ½ cup potatoes, peeled and diced
- ½ cup green beans
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
- Place the cod fillet on a piece of aluminum foil large enough to wrap it. Pour half of the marinade over the cod, making sure it's well-coated. Reserve the other half of the marinade for later.
- On a baking sheet, spread out the diced potatoes and green beans. Drizzle the remaining marinade over them, tossing to coat evenly.
- Place the marinated cod on the baking sheet with the potatoes and green beans. Fold the foil around the cod, creating a packet, and seal it tightly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cod easily flakes with a fork and the potatoes are tender.
- Carefully open the foil packet, and if desired, broil for an additional 2-3 minutes to give the cod a golden finish.
- Sprinkle the dish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
