hot skillet, add the fish to the skillet and cook for 4–5 minutes on each side or until the fish flakes easily. Serves on rice with cut scallions.
Grill
Heat grill to high. Cut aluminum foil large enough to completely enclose fish. Drizzle or spray olive oil on foil. Add salt & pepper and low sodium chicken to the foil. Place fillets into the foil and seal the foil edges, then place on the grill. Cook for 10 minutes and check for doneness or cook for 15 minutes . Doneness is when fish flakes easily.
Serve on rice with cut scallions.
Broil
Season fish with olive oil , salt and pepper. Place the fish on a baking sheet and broil on high for 8 to 10 minutes. DO NOT OVERCOOK. Serve on rice with cut scallions.
