Baked Cod Casserole
Dry white wine and Gruyère cheese give this fish casserole a rich flavor that hides its virtue. Before baking, we top the dish with seasoned whole-wheat breadcrumbs, which add a wholesome, nutty flavor and dietary fiber. For variety, you can substitute almost any mild white fish.
Spanish Tapas-Inspired Mussels
When you think “mussels” you may not instantly think “chickpeas,” but the two are joined in tasteful union in this delicious, bistro-style dish. You'll want some crusty bread to sop up the sauce.
Blackened Salmon Sandwich
Blackened salmon is great in a sandwich with a spread of mashed avocado and low-fat mayonnaise plus peppery arugula leaves, cool tomato slices and zesty red onion. We grill our Cajun-style salmon so there is no need for any added cooking oil. Catfish makes an excellent stand-in for the salmon but you'll want to use a grill basket if you have one to keep the fish from breaking apart.
Grilled Shrimp Cocktail with Yellow Gazpacho Salsa
Yellow tomatoes have a lower acidity than their red cousins and several varieties are among the earliest in the season to ripen. Here they combine with cool cucumber and yellow bell peppers in a refreshing salsa. Grilled shrimp make this dish a more full-flavored and elegant version of shrimp cocktail.
Bouillabaisse with Spicy Rouille
This famous Provencal stew was traditionally a catchall for fishermen's catch of the day. Our version uses ocean-friendly calamari, tilapia and scallops.
Try some of our favorite healthy recipes for sustainable fish you can feel good about buying and cooking.
Some varieties of seafood, such as mackerel, lake trout, herring, sardines, albacore tuna and salmon, are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, and most seafood is high in selenium and low in saturated fat, making it a heart-healthy protein choice. We've opted for sustainable choices of fish and seafood in our recipes, and there are plenty of options! If you’re not a fish-lover but want to start incorporating it into your menu, start with milder varieties like haddock, halibut and mahi-mahi and balance the taste with a robust sauce or acidic elements like lemon juice. If there is a stronger-flavored variety that you are hesitant to try, soak the fish in milk to neutralize some “ocean” flavors. If you are already a seafood lover, experiment with different types of seafood in your favorite recipes. This recipe collection features all kinds of seafood from cuisines around the world, full of enticing flavors for any occasion.
