    1

    Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).

    2

    Peel and chop the sweet potatoes into small cubes.

    3

    Place the sweet potatoes on a baking sheet, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.

    4

    Roast the sweet potatoes in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes until slightly tender.

    5

    While the sweet potatoes are roasting, prepare the broccoli by cutting it into florets.

    6

    After the sweet potatoes have roasted for 15 minutes, add the broccoli to the baking sheet.

    7

    In a small bowl, mix the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, minced garlic, juice from the lemon, salt, and pepper.

    8

    Place the cod fillets on the baking sheet and drizzle the garlic-lemon mixture over the cod.

    9

    Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake everything for an additional 15 to 20 minutes, until the cod is cooked through and flaky, and the vegetables are tender.

    10

    Remove from oven and let it cool slightly before serving.

How to be creative
  • Add herbs like parsley or dill for a fresh flavor.
  • Substitute the cod with salmon for a different taste.
  • Top with a sprinkle of feta cheese before serving for added creaminess.
Important Tips
  • Make sure not to overcook the cod; it should flake easily with a fork.
  • Use parchment paper on your baking sheet for easier cleanup.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables like carrots or zucchini for more variety!
