Ingredients

  • 215g Cod Fillet
  • 255g quinoa
  • 80g red cabbage
  • 80g carrots
  • 30g bbq sauce
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 3g garlic
  • 25g cheddar cheese
  • 60g avocado
  • 10g spring onions

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the red cabbage and carrot, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Rinse the quinoa and simmer in 2 parts water for 15 minutes until the tails appear, then fluff.

  3. 3

    Season the cod and bake at 200°C for 12-15 minutes until opaque and flaking.

  4. 4

    Mix the BBQ sauce with smoked paprika and garlic. Brush over the protein for the last few minutes of cooking so it chars without burning.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the red cabbage and carrot for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the plate: quinoa first, then the veg and cod, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the spring onions.

  7. 7

    Bulking upgrade: add the cheddar cheese, avocado for extra energy-dense calories.
