Meals in Minutes - Super Seafood
To some, “fast food” means a burger from the drive-through or a pizza delivered to the front door, but to us, it means “fish for dinner.” Most seafood cooks in just a couple of minutes, so a fish fillet with a simple pan sauce or crunchy coating would likely beat a delivered pizza to the table. Fish is a snap to prepare, it’s light and clean on the palate, and it delivers high-quality protein with little fat, aside from the occasional heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids.
At the risk of oversimplification, we tend to think of seafood in three broad categories — those with flaky, generally white, and sometimes fragile flesh and delicate flavor; those with slightly darker flesh and richer flavor; and shellfish. Regardless of the type, all fish should appear fresh, firm, and glistening
when you buy it. Fish should smell fresh, clean, and of the sea. If there’s even a hint of strong or unpleasant odor, take a rain check.
