Baked Fish Plaki with Tomato and Vegetables
Baked Fish Plaki with Tomato and Vegetables
Why this works: white fish is lean protein, the tomato, onion, and peppers are a generous layer of fiber, and olive oil and olives bring healthy fat. A light, fragrant dinner that fills you without a spike and sits easy before sleep.
Ingredients (1 serving):
- 1 white fish fillet (cod, hake, or sea bass)
- 1 tomato, chopped
- Half an onion, sliced
- Half a pepper, sliced
- 1 garlic clove
- A few olives
- Olive oil, lemon, parsley
Instructions:
- Heat the oven to 200C.
- Soften the onion, pepper, and garlic in olive oil, add the tomato and cook 5 minutes.
- Spread the vegetables in a dish, lay the fish on top, add olives.
- Bake 15 minutes, finish with lemon and parsley.
Cook time: 10 minutes prep, 20 minutes cooking.
Food order guidance:
Step 1: the tomato, onion, and peppers (fiber) first.
Step 2: the fish, olives, and olive oil (protein and fat).
Step 3: no starch needed. Any bread comes last, dipped in the juices, never alone.
From my journey: fish baked over vegetables like this is my kind of light dinner. It fills me without that heavy feeling before bed.
I lost 24kg without giving up the foods I love. I learned to change the way I ate instead of constantly trying to eat less or follow another restrictive plan.
