Low Fat Fish Recipes
|
I have adapted one of my low fat fish recipes for the crockpot. It's ideal as you don't need to use fat to part cook anything as the tomatoes cook the fish and provide a lovely sauce for you to pour over your vegetables.
You can use any firm white fish fillets or steaks here - tilapia, basa, haddock, cod - whatever you fancy on the day.
Also - if you like, you could add a splash of wine or cider - you're looking for low fat eating here, you're not in solitary confinement on subsistence rations ;-)
Fish in Tomato Sauce
4 6 oz (150g)white fish steaks or fillets
1 14 oz (400g) can peeled italian plum tomatoes - chopped
1 tbspn tomato puree
garlic salt to taste
fresh ground black pepper
1 diced green pepper
Turn the crockpot onto LOW.
Stir the tomato puree into the chopped tomatoes, season and add the green pepper.
Lay the fish fillets in the bottom and pour over the tomato mixture.
Leave to cook for 3 to 5 hours - 2 to 3 hours on HIGH if you prefer.
If you're on a diet, low fat fish recipes are easy to find - avoid any cheesy dishes, obviously fatty dishes, be cautious with pasta and rice - but they are low fat, just the carbohydrate you have to watch there - and you're away.
