Peppers for Color

Peppers for Color

Eating clean and cooking things easily are a hard combination I have found. I also have found that the more vegetables I can fill up on the less bad crap I eat. I work hard to feel full and satisfied with lunch. I needed more color in my diet and have had a rough time with meal prepping different colors. This is one fix I have found this last week- multiple colored peppers! Sauteed and delicious!
(I couldn't find yellow at the market to make it more colorful)

This is the seasoning I used tonight! It was super good! U can use a small amount of real butter, coconut oil, or my pref small amount of olive oil.

Description

Healthy and flavorful Asian Glazed Swai Fish over jasmine rice. Make this one of your fall favorites and you won’t be sorry!

Ingredients

• 3 Tablespoons Olive Oil
• 2 cups Water
• 1 cup Jasmine Rice
• 3 Tablespoons Honey
• 2 teaspoons Low Sodium Soy Sauce
• 2 teaspoons Sesame Oil
• 2 Tablespoons Sriracha
• 2 teaspoons Rice Vinegar
• 1 pound Swai Fish Fillets
• 3  Green Onions, Chopped
• Black Pepper To Taste

Preparation

For the rice: In a small pot add 1/3 of the oil and water and bring to a rolling boil. Add the jasmine rice, then cover the pot and simmer for about 20 minutes, or until all the water has been absorbed by the rice

For the glaze: In a small bowl mix together the honey, soy sauce, sesame oil, Sriracha, rice vinegar, and pepper.

For the fish: Heat remaining 2/3 of the oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Slice your fish fillets in half (if needed) and place in the oil in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side and then remove from heat. Add freshly ground pepper to the fish.

Plate your fish fillets over a bed of jasmine rice. Pour a few spoonfuls of glaze over the top of the fish.
Then sprinkle a few pieces of green onion over the top of the fish for a garnish.

I wanted to find a healthier alternative for Chinese food that doesn’t compromise the flavor or culinary experience that you find when sitting down for an Asian meal. Enjoy!
