Spicy South Asian Roasted Fish

Even though salmon garners the most attention for omega-3 fats, one serving of this halibut entrée has about 0.6 grams, about half the amount of one's daily intake goal.

Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 1 fillet and about 1 tablespoon sauce)

Ingredients

• 1/2  cup  light coconut milk
• 2  tablespoons  minced peeled fresh lemongrass
• 1  tablespoon  minced peeled fresh ginger
• 2  tablespoons  chili sauce
• 1 1/2  tablespoons  fish sauce
• 1  tablespoon  fresh lime juice
• 2  garlic cloves, minced
• 4  (6-ounce) skinless halibut fillets

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 425°.

2. Combine first 7 ingredients in a food processor or blender; pulse 30 seconds or until well combined.

3. Arrange fillets in a single layer in a 13 x 9–inch baking dish. Pour lemongrass mixture over fish; turn fillets to coat evenly. Bake at 425° for 13 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork or until desired degree of doneness. Serve sauce with fish.
