Ingredients

  • 8oz baby red potatoes
  • 1 bunch asparagus
  • 2 cod fillets, 3oz each
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Vinaigrette

  • 3 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp or 1/2 packet of Truvía® Calorie-Free Sweetener
  • 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp minced shallots
  • 1 bunch tarragon, leaves removed & coarsely chopped

Directions

  1. Bring a large heavy pot of water to a boil over high heat.
  2. While waiting for water to boil, wash potatoes and asparagus. Snap off woody ends of asparagus and discard. Then cut asparagus in half and set aside. Cut potatoes in ½ inch circles and set aside. Fill a small bowl with water and ice and set aside.
  3. When water is boiling, add asparagus and blanch for 2 minutes. Remove from boiling water using a strainer or tongs and place directly in ice bath to stop cooking.
  4. Add potatoes to boiling water for 10 minutes.
  5. Meanwhile, whisk together vinaigrette ingredients in a medium-sized bowl.
  6. Toss cooked potatoes and asparagus with vinaigrette. Set aside until ready to plate.
  7. Place a heavy non-stick skillet on burner set to medium-high heat.
  8. Pat cod dry with paper towels and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  9. Drizzle 1 Tbsp olive oil in hot skillet and swirl to coat. Gently place both cod fillets in skillet and sauté for 3 minutes without moving so a crust can develop. Carefully flip both fillets and sauté an additional 3-4 minutes. Check the internal temperature so that the fish is cooked to a minimum internal temperature of 145ºF.
  10. Split the potato/asparagus mixture between 2 plates. Top each plate with a cod fillet. Serve immediately.
