One of my go to meals on my weight loss journey has been grilled salmon.  I prepare it by lightly coating the salmon with olive oil and lemon juice and placing on a bed of tin foil.  I also sprinkle capers and season with salt and pepper.  I the cook on the grill at 375 for 25 minutes.  I usually server with grilled green beans and multi grain pasta with marinara sauce.

I am fortunate to live in Maine, a short drive from the freshest seafood available in the country. when cooking fish remember that it cooks fast, use oils, lemon juice and fresh herbs to enhance the flavor. 

I don't like fish, and I haven't eaten it in over 20 years. But recently I have been trying to eat fish, and it has been slow going for me. I will continue to try but I don't think I'll ever be a regular fish eater. I have added flax to my diet not just for the Omega-3s but also for the fiber. Because I am gluten intolerant it is a little difficult for me to get fiber since I can't eat the delicious high fiber cereals.

I am fortunate in that my father exposed us to many different kinds of fish.  (In MI, if you don't like fish, you're weird!)  When I was a kid, it was fried perch or smelt that I liked best, but as my tastes have matured I prefer the meatier fish, grilled.  Salmon is my favorite, but tuna steaks are nice too. 

I also adore fish stews, and that is a simple way to get a serving of fish and sort of hide it at the same time.

I never liked fish until I bought the Better Homes and Gardens Dieter's Cookbook and learned to make it myself. I discovered that tilapia can be quite good when breaded and baked, or pan-fried with cooking spray, soy sauce, a little brown sugar and Chinese five-spice. I also learned that I love salmon and make a point of ordering it whenever I see it on a restaurant menu. My main problem with eating fish often is the cost; chicken and beef are always cheaper where I live. But fish is a calorie counter's power food for sure!

I plan on making a cioppino for Super Bowl..I hear it's low calorie! Crab..Shrimp..Mussels...Clams...Scallops....Cod...MMMMH cant wait

I'm one year into being a pescetarian. Much happier this way.

Salmon is delicious cooked the following way, and no fishy smells.

Place salmon fillet on a silicone sheet or foil lightly sprayed with 1 cal spray.

Then sprinkle some Indian seasoning or Jamaican jerk seasoning over the salmon. Roast in the oven at 200c, gas 6 for approx 10-15mins or until firm to the touch.

I usually serve this with lemon rice and steamed broccolli.

I love salmon with 50g rice noodles, 50g mushrooms and onions all boiled then mix the salmon in with creme fraiche or light cream cheese,delicious!

Actually, re Omega 3's, I am a bit tired of constantly reading only about the benefits of fish and seafood and recipes for them.  I (and others I know) am allergic to fish and still others are allergic to shellfish.  These allergies also exclude the use of fish oil and medicinal preparations containing shellfish.  These allergies are not at all uncommon.  In addition, much fish and shellfish is quite expensive.  I would love to see far more interesting recipes for the use of the alternatives: flax seeds, walnuts, soybeans, winter squash, tofu, plant based oils, etc.

I am a pescatarian and this is the posting section for MEEE!!! I love fish, allllll kinds! Tonight I had halibut, yesterday tilapia, and haddock, tuna...sardines, herring, you name it fish is on the list! Recently I had tried to go vegan- twice actually and it did not work for me at all!

I have so, sooo many ways of making fish, but most recent I have thought up casserol type ideas that are veratle, simple- (and fish can be substituted with tofu, chicken, etc) One favorite combination and choices to alternate are;

-tuna, salmon, shrimp, crab meat

-Shirataki noodles, Vegetable/zucchini/spagetti squash noodles

-vegan cheese, fat free dressing, fat free or veganaise

-chopped minced vegetables, spices, etc.-

Heat, eat- simple!!

Oh, lucky me! I LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!! fish...I live in Florida where the variety of species is amazing...there is always fresh caught wild fish in my kitchen...I've been known to grab my fishing gear at the crack of dawn to catch fish (sea trout and red fish!) off the dock while still in my jammies!

Trick of the trade, marinade fish in milk to neutralize heavy fishy flavors or smells. Fav recipe for oily fish like spanish mackeral is to make a tin foil pouch, place a filet down, top it with olives, tomatoes, capers and feta cheese...bake on 350 until its done, time depends on how thick the filet is...start at 12 minutes for thin tilapia filets, go as long as you need for thicker cuts...don't over cook! Its done when the flesh just starts to flake. This can also be done by placing the foil pack on a grill.

I'm sure peoples' aversion to fish is due to ages old problems of transporting fish. Today's advanced food distribution makes great fish available to everyone. Take a chance, and ENJOY!

i love fish, but I grew up eating fried fish so baked is OK but I missed the crunch.  Finally found a way to have crunchy fish.  I use wild caught whiting but any fish would work. I "bread" it with crushed Special K cracker chips.  I use the sea salt flavor.  Season the  crushed chips with lemon pepper and pan fry in a non-stick pan coated with cooking spray.  The results are crunchy and delicious.  The fish is approximately 97 cal. per 4 oz. and the cracker chips are 110 cal per 30 chips.  30 chips will bread two good sized pieces, about 8 or 9 oz. total. Now, I can have crunchy fried fish that is low cal.  Just thought I would add this comment in case there are other crunchy fish lovers around.

I hate fish, I ate it as a child and chocked on a bone and have not ate it since...I do'nt do anything that come from the water. I do try to have fish oil vitamins ever so often but thats it.

yeap me too and as a vege I found it difficult to be satisfied on carbs alone! now that I eat fish/seafood I am more satisfied & am not constantly eating.

I have noticed differences in my body and felt less fatigued as well

I was raised on fresh water fish. My great grand father fished every night so there was usually fresh fish for dinner, usually fried, No always fried.

How ever I do enjoy alot of the farm raised fish, wild caught is hard to get where I live, and I do enjoy shrimps. I have had salmon one time that I enjoyed, but with how it was fixed, it was loaded with calories. Have been considering trying smoked salmon.

So for now I have 4 shrimps in my gazpatcho to make a filling meal

I love fish but don't eat it enough. Mostly because I can't buy it fresh on weekdays. My nutrition teacher won over the vegetarians in our group when she explained how difficult it was to get alternative sources. The only supplement I take is fish oil.
