This container burned cod coordinates with an entire grain mustard vinaigrette for a pop of tart flavor that hoists this just cooked piece of fish.

Cooking Ingredients

    • 3 cups low-sodium no-chicken or chicken broth

    • 1 cup dried black lentils (see Tip), picked over and rinsed

    • 3 tablespoons red-wine vinegar

    • 2 teaspoons whole-grain mustard

    • ¾ teaspoon salt, divided

    • ½ teaspoon ground pepper, divided

    • 6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided

    • ½ cup chopped pecans, toasted

    • ½ cup thinly sliced radishes

    • 1 medium shallot, thinly sliced

    • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint, plus more for garnish

    • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, plus more for garnish

    • 1 ¼ pounds cod fillet, cut into 4 portions

    • ¼ cup cornstarch

Cooking Direction

    1. Join stock and lentils in a little pot. Heat to the point of boiling, then diminish intensity to keep a low stew. Cover and cook until the lentils are delicate, 15 to 20 minutes. Eliminate from intensity and channel any leftover stock.
    2. In the mean time, whisk vinegar, mustard and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Gradually race in 4 tablespoons oil. Hold 2 tablespoons vinaigrette in a little bowl.
    3. Add the lentils, walnuts, radishes, shallot, mint, parsley and 1/4 teaspoon salt to the dressing in the medium bowl and mix to join.
    4. Wipe cod off and sprinkle with the excess 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Dig the cod in cornstarch, squeezing to stick and delicately shaking off any abundance. Heat the leftover 2 tablespoons oil in a huge nonstick skillet over medium-high intensity. Add the cod and cook, flipping once, until it's brilliant brown and pieces effectively with a fork, 8 to 12 minutes.
    5. Serve the lentil salad finished off with the cod and sprinkled with the saved 2 tablespoons vinaigrette. Decorate with more parsley and mint, whenever wanted.
