Hazelnut Encrusted Cod with Nutty Rice and Broccoli
Let’s do something interesting with fish tonight! You can find cod, sablefish, black cod or Pacific cod at the fish counter, or freezer section. You can also by packages of frozen cod at many supermarkets. They are all reasonably sustainable catches so dare I say: “In Cod We Trust?”
Tonight, you’ll cook the fish with a toasted hazelnut crust. The fish is accompanied by a healthy portion of nutty rice. Bright green steamed broccoli with butter and lemon finishes the plate.
