WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE:
You can enjoy this flavorful sesame fish dish any night of the week. It’s fast and easy to make, and if you’re not a fan of tilapia or salmon, you can choose any fish you prefer. It’s also a great dish that you can add your own spin to just by adding some spices like red pepper flakes, extra garlic, or even a little lemon juice. To really impress, sprinkle with fresh parley or rosemary.
NOTES:
Sesame fish can be eaten on Cycles 1-4 of the 17 Day Diet.
Fish is a great way to get some much-needed protein in your diet. It's also easy and fast to cook so it's perfect for a weeknight meal.
If you don't have soy sauce on hand, make your own by mixing together 2 garlic cloves + ¾ cup of vinegar + 3 tablespoons of dark molasses + 3 teaspoons of onion powder.
