Description

Here’s a simple yet elegant seafood recipe. Our Pritikin chefs often use salmon or whitefish; shrimp and scallops are good choices, too.

Pair with a baked potato, sweet potato, or brown rice (try new easy-to-make brown rice bowls – just 90 seconds in the microwave – and the only ingredients are brown rice and water.)
