- 1 tsp lemon zest
- Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
- Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it’s hot and ready for baking. - Prepare the Oil Mixture
In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon zest, salt, and pepper. This mixture will be the flavor base for your vegetables and cod. - Coat the Vegetables
Toss the mixed spring vegetables in the oil mixture until they’re well coated, ensuring each piece is infused with the aromatic flavors. - Arrange on Baking Sheet
Place the cod fillets on a baking sheet and arrange the coated vegetables around them, ensuring an even distribution for optimal cooking. - Drizzle Remaining Oil Mixture
Drizzle any remaining oil mixture over the cod fillets to enhance their flavor. - Bake
Bake the dish in your preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cod is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. - Garnish and Serve
Once baked, garnish with fresh herbs such as parsley or dill before serving. This adds a burst of freshness and color to your dish.
