Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup basmati rice, rinsed
¼ cup red bell pepper, finely chopped, seeds and ribs removed
¼ cup carrot, finely chopped
¼ cup jalapeño, seeded and minced
4 teaspoons salt, divided
1 can Thai Kitchen® coconut milk
¼ cup water
24 oz cod fillets, pacific
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon McCormick® dried cilantro leaves
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Lime wedge, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, combine the rice, bell pepper, carrots, jalapeño, 2 teaspoons salt, Thai Kitchen coconut milk, and water, then stir to combine. Turn the heat to medium-high and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 10-12 minutes or until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed.
  • Meanwhile, season the cod fillets on both sides with the remaining 2 teaspoons of salt, the pepper, and McCormick Dried Cilantro Leaves.
  • In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is almost smoking, lay each fillet in the pan. Sear until fish releases from pan with ease and is golden brown, about 5 minutes. Using a fish spatula, flip each fillet and sear on the other side until cooked through, about 3 minutes.
  • To serve, scoop rice onto each plate and top with a cod fillet. Serve with lime wedges.
  • Enjoy!
