Baked Cod with citrus cilantro sauce over rice

1/2 lb wild cod
olive oil
butter (about 2 Tbsp.)
salt and pepper
lemon slices (two per piece) plus juice to drizzle over the fish

Citrus Cilantro Sauce
3/4 cup plan greek yogurt (or vanilla or coconut flavor works too)
1 Tbsp. fresh orange juice
2 tsp. fresh lemon juice
1/3 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1/4 tsp. garlic powder

Rice:
1 cup basmati rice
1 3/4 cups chicken broth
pinch of salt

Directions:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Let's start with making the rice. Place the chicken broth and a pinch of salt in a sauce pan and bring to a boil. Add the rice and stir. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes.

Next let's make the Citrus Cilantro Sauce. Place the yogurt, chopped Cilantro, garlic powder, orange and lemon juice, in a bowl and whisk until combined. Store in the refrigerator until needed.

Rinse and pat dry the fish. Drizzle a little olive oil in the bottom of a baking dish and lay the cod on top of the oil. This will help to keep it from sticking.

Drizzle fresh lemon juice over the fish and then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Lay thin slices of butter over each piece of cod and top with 2 slices of lemon over each piece.

Bake in the oven for 20 to 30 minutes or until the cod is flakey and cooked through.

To serve it up:

Place fish over a bed of rice plus a little of the juices from the dish. Add a dollop of the citrus cilantro sauce and top with chopped cilantro. Enjoy!
