Helpful hints

  • If white fish is unavailable, substitute catfish, cod, orange roughy or tilapia.
  • Drain cooked fish on paper towels to soak up extra oil.
  • Measure vinegar-soy sauce to help keep sodium content low.
  • For a low protein diet, reduce portion to match your meal plan or consult your dietitian.
