Free Healthy Recipe - Grilled Flathead with Brussels Sprouts, Anchovy and Flaked Almonds

Dairy free, Low carbohydrate, Low fat, Wheat Free

Here's a dish you can make in less than 20 minutes that looks as good as anything you'd find in a restaurant. The array of flavours in the sprouts means you need to nothing more to the fish than simply pan frying it - but don't forget to add pepper at the end (see note).

Ingredients

400 grams Brussels sprouts, peeled and trimmed

2 tbsp tea oil

6 anchovy fillets drained of oil and mashed

½ lemon juiced

1 tbsp thyme

1 tsp lemon zest

2 tbsp almond slivers, dry roasted

cracked black pepper

700 grams flathead fillets

Method

Steam the Brussel sprouts for approx 4 minutes until just tender. Dry roast the almond slivers until golden. Heat the tea oil gently in a pan and add the anchovy. Toss through the sprouts to ensure they are covered in the anchovy oil, drizzle with lemon juice, thyme and lemon zest.

Heat a little oil in a non stick pan and pan fry the fish for 3 minutes each side.
Serve the fish over the sprouts topped with slivered almonds and black pepper.

Note: Black pepper is one of the 3 components used in Ayurvedic medicine. It's believed to help enhance the bioavailability of other nutrients - so the next time the waiter asks if you want pepper, say yes.
