Cod is not only an excellent source of protein and selenium, it is also a very good source of vitamin B6 and phosphorous. In addition, cod contains a variety of important nutrients such as omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin B12, potassium, vitamin D and niacin. Better still, it is an excellent low-calorie source of protein.
Studies show that people who eat fish regularly have a much lower risk of heart disease and heart attack than people who don't consume fish. Stick to broiled, grilled, baked or steamed cod to get the best results.
2 pieces of frozen sliced cod
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 teaspoon prawn chilli (or any other bottled chilli available from the supermarket)
1 teaspoon crushed garlic
1/2 large lime
sprinkle of salt
1) Marinate the fish with a sprinkle of salt, olive oil and lime juice. This helps to take away the "fishy" smell.
2) Lay the marinated cod fish fillets on a small plate. Spoon prawn chilli and garlic onto the cod fish and cover with aluminum foil.
3) Place the plate in a steamer for about 7-10 mins (depending on the thickness of your cod slices) and voila! Alternatively, you can wrap the cod fillets in aluminum and place it in the oven to bake.
