Chef's Note
For the perfect cod texture, follow the 10-minute rule: measure the fish at its thickest point and cook for 10 minutes per inch. The fish is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F and flakes easily with a fork.

Ingredients
6 oz cod fillet
8 oz sweet potato
2 cups kale
3 cloves garlic cloves
1 tsp fresh thyme
1 tsp fresh rosemary
1 tbsp fresh parsley
1/2 lemon
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp ghee
1/4 cup chicken broth
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp paprika
1/8 tsp red pepper flakes
Instructions
- 1
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- 2
Peel and dice the sweet potato into 1-inch cubes. Place in a medium pot, cover with cold water, add 1/4 tsp salt, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes until fork-tender.
- 3
While potatoes cook, mince 2 garlic cloves and finely chop the fresh herbs (thyme, rosemary, and half the parsley).
- 4
Pat the cod fillet dry with paper towels. Season with 1/4 tsp salt, 1/8 tsp black pepper, and paprika on both sides.
- 5
In a small bowl, combine 1 tbsp olive oil, minced garlic, chopped herbs, and zest from half the lemon. Rub this mixture all over the cod fillet.
- 6
Place the cod on a parchment-lined baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, until fish flakes easily with a fork.
- 7
While the fish roasts, drain the sweet potatoes and return to the pot. Add ghee and mash until smooth. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cover to keep warm.
- 8
Slice the remaining garlic clove thinly. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced garlic and red pepper flakes, cooking for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- 9
Add the kale to the skillet along with 1/4 cup chicken broth. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cover and cook for 3-4 minutes until the greens are wilted but still bright green.
- 10
Squeeze juice from half the lemon over the wilted greens and stir to combine.
- 11
To serve, spread the sweet potato mash on a plate, place the cod fillet on top, and arrange the wilted greens alongside. Garnish with remaining fresh parsley.
