Doctor Oz did a show on Food Frauds, which are examples of how companies trick us with their food labels and packaging. Then Dr Oz brought Dave Lieberman on his show to show us some Food Fixes, which are how to turn his Food Frauds into healthy meals. Lieberman made three dishes: Almond Crusted Halibut, Quinoa Salad and Berry Granita for dessert. Sounds like the perfect healthy diet meal!
Dave Lieberman’s Almond Crusted Halibut Recipe
Ingredients:
– 1/2 cup olive oil
– Juice and grated zest of lemon
– 1/2 cup sliced raw almonds
– 2 cloves of garlic
– 1/4 cup finely chopped parsley
– 4 (6-oz) pieces of halibut or tilapia
Directions:
1. Mix together the lemon juice and zest, olive oil, garlic, almonds and parsley.
2. Put the pieces of halibut on a baking sheet.
3. Season the halibut with a touch of salt, black pepper and olive oil.
4. Place the almond mixture on top of the pieces of halibut to create a nice crust on the fish.
5. Bake the fish at 400 degrees (according to Dr Oz’s website… but I could have sworn that Lieberman said on the show to put it in at 450 degrees) for 15 minutes.
6. You will know the halibut fish is ready when it flakes and is browned on top.
