This one is adapted from AllRecipes.com where the recipe calls for two pounds of halibut. As fun as that much fish may seem, we eat lovely 6 oz portions in my home which seems to be quite enough protein. I'm therefore paring down to a 2-person recipe and leaving out carbs to make the dish diabetic friendly. I like to serve this dish with a vegetable like lima beans that have both a low glycemic index (46) and load (7).
Ingredients:
- 2 6oz halibut or cod filets
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tbsp salted butter - softened
- 1.5 tbsp mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp chopped scallions
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1 dash sriracha sauce
Pat filets dry using paper towel, squeezing gently to remove excess liquid and coat lightly with olive oil. Place filets into your toaster oven's foil lined baking tray with the rack set so the filets are about 6" from the heat source, and broil on a low setting for ~8 minutes.
Meanwhile, mix all other ingredients in a bowl.
Remove filets from the oven, coat with mixture and return to the oven for about another 2 minutes. Your cue to serve is when the topping is bubbling and slightly browned.
Serve with a side of diabetic friendly vegetables and a green salad of your choice.
Blessed be... and happy cooking!
