Parmesan Crusted Filet

Not your typical fish, veggies and sweet potato recipe! Time to spice things up with this spin on a seemingly boring filet of white fish. No deep frying required here to get the perfectly crusted fish filet. Not only is fish a great source of lean protein, but they are also rich in vitamins and minerals.

Ingredients:

• 115g Fish filet (we used halibut here), defrosted

• 30g egg whites

• 2 tbsp parmesan cheese

• Salt and garlic powder, optional

Directions:

1. Carefully dip and coat the fish filet in the egg whites. This works best if you use a plate or a large. shallow Tupperware container

2. Lightly dip the fish filet in the parmesan cheese. Again, a plate or shallow Tupperware container will work best.

3. Bake at 425 for 15-20 minutes.

4. Serve with roasted sweet potatoes and veggies, voila!
