A classic recipe from the Middle East, which, I have lightened up for a low fat and low calorie meal. The nutty flavoured sesame seed sauce (tahini paste) is mixed with fat free yoghurt, lemon juice, lemon zest and parsley for a flavoursome creamy sauce that adds moisture to grilled fish fillets.
Ingredients
- 4 fish fillets, weighing about 125g each (such as hake, coley, cod, haddock or halibut)
- salt and black pepper
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons tahini paste
- juice of 1 lemon
- grated zest of 1 lemon
- 3 tablespoons 0% fat Greek style yoghurt (or low-fat yoghurt)
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
- 4 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- lemon slices to garnish
- fresh parsley to garnish
