Directions
- Preheat the oven to broil on high and position the rack close to the heat; line a baking sheet with aluminum foil if you like easier cleanup.
- Rinse and dry all fresh produce before prep.
- In a medium bowl, zest and juice the lemons, then whisk in olive oil, honey, coriander, salt, and black pepper to form a dressing.
- Pat the cod dry and place it on the prepared baking sheet; brush with half of the dressing and turn to coat evenly.
- Broil the fish until it flakes easily with a fork, about 8–10 minutes, then remove from the oven.
- Drain and rinse the beans in a colander and add them to the dressing-coated bowl.
- Place the frozen corn in the colander, run it under hot tap water to defrost, and add to the bowl.
- Trim and seed the red bell pepper, then dice it medium and add to the bowl.
- Trim and halve the cucumber lengthwise, slice into thin half-moons, and add to the bowl.
- Shave cilantro leaves from the stems, mince, and add to the bowl along with the crumbled feta; season with salt and pepper and toss to combine the salad.
- Serve by dividing the fish and the salad between plates and enjoy.
Two tips
- Make the dressing ahead and keep it in the fridge for up to a day; toss the salad just before serving to keep textures bright.
- Swap red bell pepper for an extra cucumber or use the feta to add a tangy bite to the salad as you prefer.
