8. Roasted Cod and Scallions With Spiced Potatoes
Think of this scrumptious seafood dinner as a slightly more elaborate fish and chips kinda deal. You’ll need to use the oven for this one. Roasted Cod and Scallions with Spiced Potatoes will keep you warm on a chilly evening and it takes no longer than 30 minutes to prepare. Leave the potatoes (coated in oil and chili powder) to roast on one baking dish. Meanwhile let the halibut/cod/striped bass (topped in lemon peel) to roast in a separate dish. Oven temperature needs to go up to 425 degrees, which gives the potatoes that much-loved crispiness. In short, a delicious dinner prepared in a jiffy.
