BUTTERY BAKED COD WITH COCONUT RICE

BUTTERY BAKED COD WITH COCONUT RICE

Ingredients for cod:

4 1 inch thick Alaskan cod filets - skin off

1/4 cup olive oil

1/4 cup butter (I used Miyokos Creamery vegan butter)

1/4 cup lemon juice

1 shallot finely chopped

Sea salt & pepper

Ingredients for rice:

2 cups of organic basmati or jasmine rice - rinsed

2 cups of water

1 13oz can of full fat coconut milk

1 tsp sea salt

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 375.  Place filets in a ceramic or glass baking dish. Pour the lemon juice over the cod.  On the stove top, heat a skillet on medium high for 2 minutes.  Add oil, butter, and shallots to the pan.  Saute' until shallots are turning translucent - stirring constantly.  This takes approx 3 minutes.  Pour mixture evenly over the filets.  Season with salt and pepper.  Bake for approx 20-25 minutes.  They are done when an internal thermometer reaches 145 degrees.  The filets will look smaller and white.

Serve over coconut rice...

Pour all ingredients into a medium size sauce pan.  Whisk everything together well. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes.  Let stand for 5 minutes. 

Place the filet on top of the coconut rice and pour a little juice from the baking pan over.

Enjoy!
