Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
- In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, cumin, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
- Place the cod fillets in the marinade, coating them evenly. Let them marinate while you prepare the vegetables.
- On a baking tray, arrange the sliced beets and kale. Drizzle with a little olive oil and season with salt.
- Roast the beets and kale in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes.
- While the vegetables are roasting, cook the jasmine rice according to package instructions. Typically, combine the rice with 450 ml (1.9 cups) of water, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
- After 15 minutes of roasting, add the marinated cod fillets to the baking tray with the vegetables. Roast for an additional 15 minutes until the cod flakes easily with a fork.
- Once done, remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes.
- Fluff the rice with a fork and divide it among four plates. Top with the roasted cod, kale, beets, and garnish with fresh mint. Add sliced avocado and lime wedges if desired.
