When you want a flavorful, easy to do fish dish try this one out. It makes a savory main course accompanied by fresh vegetables, cauliflower rice, or zucchini pasta. Cod or halibut are great substitutions if sea bass isn’t available.
Serves: 4
Ingredients:
1.5 lbs ripe tomatoes (peeled, seeded, and puréed)
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp red chili flakes
6 cloves of garlic (minced)
1/4 cup parsley (finely chopped)
1.5 lbs sea bass filets (about 1 inch thick)
Salt & pepper to taste
Heat oil over medium-low heat in large sauce pan and add garlic and red chili flakes. Sauté for 1 minute. Add puréed tomatoes, salt and pepper and cook over medium-high heat, stirring often for 8-10 minutes. Add half of parsley to sauce followed by the fish. Season fish with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining parsley and serve.

Tip of the Day:
Avoid Drinking Your Meals Although smoothies are technically allowed, I am not a fan of drinking calories. Science shows that your brain’s normal satiety signals are bypassed when you gulp instead of chew. This means, people don’t account for those calories later in the day, and end up eating more. Do yourself a favor, wake up five minutes earlier and make yourself some eggs or reheat some leftovers instead of bringing a smoothie along for your commute.
