Grilled Cod with Spinach and Mozzarella
Ingredients
  • 1 (4 ounce) fillet cod
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 pinch garlic powder, or to taste
  • 1/4 cup roughly chopped spinach, or to taste
  • 1/4 tomato, seeded and diced
  • 1 tablespoon chopped onion
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, or to taste
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar, or to taste
  • 1 slice mozzarella cheese, cut into cubes
Instructions
1
Preheat the outdoor grill to a medium-high heat level, allowing it to reach the optimal temperature for cooking.
2
Prepare the cod fillets by placing them on a sheet of aluminum foil, which will serve as a makeshift tray for cooking. Sprinkle the cod with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder to enhance its flavor.
3
Add a layer of fresh spinach, sliced tomatoes, and onions on top of the cod fillets. Season with salt and black pepper to bring out their natural flavors.
4
Drizzle a moderate amount of olive oil and balsamic vinegar over the cod to add moisture and depth to the dish. Finally, sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the cod for added flavor and texture.
5
Fold the aluminum foil over the cod, creating a compact package that seals in the flavors and helps retain moisture during cooking. Crimp the edges of the foil together to secure it in place.
6
Place the cod packet on the preheated grill and cook for 7 to 9 minutes, or until it flakes easily with a fork. This indicates that the fish is cooked to perfection and ready to be served.
