Whole30® Chile-Lime Cod Fillets image

This is a simple fish rub that creates a great flavor for Whole30® cod fillets. Best to let the fillets marinate in the rub at least a few hours, even overnight. Serve cod over your chosen accompaniments such as cooked rice, quinoa, or cauliflower rice, or your favorite vegetable.

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon dried parsley
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon chili powder
½ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon ground cumin
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 (5 ounce) cod fillets
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 tablespoon ghee (clarified butter)
2 medium limes, zested and juiced

Steps:

  • Combine paprika, parsley, oregano, chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, salt, black pepper, and cayenne in a small bowl and mix well. Brush cod fillets with 1 tablespoon olive oil; rub with the spice mixture. Use all of the spice mixture and make sure they are well coated. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 12 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Place cod on a foil-lined baking sheet.
  • Cook in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily and is opaque throughout, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, melt ghee with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a small saucepan. Add lime zest and juice and swirl the pan to mix. Serve the cod topped with the lime butter.
