Sautéed haddock with asparagus
Background
If you’re on a diet or you want to cook a quick & healthy meal needing only a little effort, this Sautéed haddock with asparagus could be the ideal recipe. It’s ready under 15 minutes, it’s delicious, low-cal and healthy! Serve it with a green salad or a mash. (I served it with mashed sweet potatoes). If calorie and/or dairy matters to you, use olive oil (or spray), rather than butter. You can make the same dish using other white fish, such as cod.
Ingredients
- 1 bunch asparagus
- 1 garlic clove, sliced
- 1 tsp capers
- 1 lemon, zested and juiced
- 2 knobs of butter ( or 1 Tbsp olive oil)
- 2 haddock fillets
- 1 Tbsp chopped dill
- Salt & pepper
Instructions
- Cut of the woody ends of the asparagus.
- Heat the oil or 1 knob of butter in a large, shallow pan together with the capers and garlic.
- When the butter has melted and the garlic is starts browning add the asparagus and rotate in the oil. Turn the heat down and put the lid on. Cook for 1 minute.
- Place the haddock on top the asparagus, scatter the lemon zest all over, then squeeze the lemon juice on top.
- Season with salt and pepper, then put a small crumble of butter on top of the fish fillets or drizzle with a drop of oil. Scatter the dill all over.
- Put the lid on and sauté for about 5-8 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish.
- Serve immediately.
