Fish is a great way to eat healthier. It’s super easy to pan sear fish for a quick dinner. I’m a huge fan. I thought I didn’t like fish, but I was just eating the wrong kinds. I have tons of amazing fish recipes on my site. We prefer eating fish at least once a week. Even our kids have learned to love it. My children often choose fish for their special birthday dinners and have been doing so since they were pre-school aged. My son almost always chooses swordfish. And fish tacos are a huge family favorite in our household. I’ve even got a healthy fish taco recipe for you.
Four ingredients are all that are required for this easy, healthy dinner. You can be fancy and add a fifth ingredient if you’d like as a garnish, but really, it’s all about the main four.
