One pan dinners are the best for busy weeknights when you’re short on time and don’t want a ton of dishes to clean up. This recipe for roasted Mediterranean-style cod and asparagus is super easy to make and only takes 25 minutes! Did I mention that it’s also paleo and Whole30-friendly? And delicious? Oh yes.

Cod has such a light flavor that it’s great for people who don’t like a strong fish flavor. It really takes on whatever flavor you give it. In this case, that’s a buttery lemon garlic flavor. Yum! I like to get a little of everything on my fork in each bite. A mix of all the delicious flavors at once. A little fish, asparagus, garlic, an olive, a tomato, a few capers. That’s pretty much perfection.

Enjoy!

    Prep Time: 15 minutes
    Cook Time: 10 minutes
    Total Time: 25 minutes
    Servings: 4 servings

    Ingredients 

    • 3 Tbsp grass-fed butter or ghee melted
    • 24 oz sustainably-caught cod fillets patted dry
    • 16 oz asparagus ends removed
    • 1 cup kalamata olives drained
    • 3 Tbsp capers drained
    • 3 cloves garlic thinly sliced lengthwise
    • 6 oz cherry tomatoes halved
    • 2 tsp sea salt
    • 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
    • 2 lemons

    Instructions

    • Preheat oven to 450ºF/232ºC.
    • Cover sheet pan with parchment paper.
    • Using a pastry brush, lightly brush the parchment paper with some of the butter or ghee.
    • Make sure your cod is really dry and remove any visible bones using tweezers.
    • Place the cod fillets on the pan.
    • Fill in the rest of the pan with the asparagus, olives, capers, garlic, and tomatoes.
    • Brush the remaining butter onto the fillets and vegetables, making sure to cover the entire surface of the cod fillets.
    • Sprinkle everything with the salt and pepper.
    • Slice one lemon into rings and top each fillet with a lemon slice.
    • Place the sheet pan in the oven on the middle rack and roast for 10-12 minutes, until the fillets are opaque all the way through and flake easily with a fork. Cooking time will depend on the thickness of your fillets.
    • Zest the remaining lemon directly onto the dish before serving.
