Sheet Pan Cod and Veggie Dinner
This sheet pan cod and veggie dinner makes weeknight seafood eating a breeze. Fresh cod pairs deliciously with roasted potatoes and broccoli. Add a side salad if you want some extra veggies and some Swedish rye crispbread with cheese or hummus if you have hungry, growing kids!
Ingredients
- 1 pound baby potatoes, quartered
- 1 pound sweet potatoes, wedged and diced
- 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- 1 teaspoon Kosher salt, divided
- 1 pound broccoli crowns
- ¼ cup plain Panko bread crumbs (or use Italian and skip the seasoning)
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- freshly ground pepper to taste
- 1 ½ pounds fresh cod (or sub salmon, haddock, or halibut)
- 1 lemon, half sliced into rounds and half into wedges
- parsley, basil, chives, or dill for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. (Do this step while chopping veggies).
- Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, combine both types of potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, ¼ teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Transfer to one of the baking sheets and bake for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, add broccoli crowns to the bowl used for the potatoes. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and then sprinkle with ¼ teaspoon salt. Toss to combine.
- In another small bowl, combine panko, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and pepper to taste. (Or just use preseasoned Italian-style Panko). Place the cod on the second baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of oil, sprinkle with ½ teaspoon of salt and then top with the panko topping. Place broccoli alongside the fish and then top the fish with thinly sliced lemon.
- After the potatoes have been in the oven for about 10 minutes, open the oven and give them a shake or toss to ensure even browning. Next, add the fish and broccoli to the oven and reduce the heat to 400 degrees. Cook for about 15 minutes until fish and potatoes are both done. Fish is done when it flakes easily with a fork.
- Add the potatoes to the sheetpan with the fish and broccoli for serving. Top with garnish of choice and serve with lemon wedges. Enjoy!
