How to Cook Lemon Garlic Sous Vide Cod
Learn the best way of cooking the delicious garlic-y codfish with a hint of lemon that will result in a mouth-watering and delicious dinner meal.
Ingredients
- 3 cod fillets
- ½ tablespoon of olive oil
- 1 sliced lemon
- ¼ teaspoon of garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon of paprika
- ¼ teaspoon of salt
- 1/8 teaspoon of ground black pepper
- Chopped parsley for garnishing (optional for serving)
Instructions
- To prepare the Sous vide, you will first need to fill its container with water, then adjust the temperature to 132°F (55.6°C). Leave it to preheat.
- Season your cod filets by rubbing ½ tablespoon of olive oil on both fish sides with the seasoning mixture made of garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Place the fish fillets in a zip-lock bag with the lemon slices. Make sure they are spread in one layer to properly and equally cook.
- Now, for the ‘Water displacement’ technique, close the bag containing the codfish completely except one corner to allow air to come out. Dip the bag in a water filler container, keeping the zip-line above the water surface. Close the zip-line completely.
- Dip the bag completely into the sous vide container. You can use sous vide weight magnets or kitchen metal tongs to make sure the bag doesn’t float on the surface
- Cook for 30 minutes.
- Remove the codfish pieces from the bag using a fish spatula to avoid them from falling apart when the time is done.
- Sprinkle the chopped parsley and serve immediately. You can serve the fish on tortillas for tacos, potatoes, or pasta.
