4 Birds Eye Seeded Crust Fish Fillets with Pumpkin Seeds & Buckwheat
2-3 large courgettes, approx 600g, washed and spiralized (can use a julienne peeler if no spiralizer)
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
¼ teaspoon dried chilli flakes (optional)
¼ teaspoon paprika
90g sun-dried tomatoes, roughly chopped
200ml low sodium chicken stock
3 tablespoons of crème fraîche
½ tablespoon tomato purée
40g fresh baby spinach, roughly chopped
Small handful of fresh basil leaves
Salt and fresh black pepper to taste
Steps
Preheat the oven to 220°C. Place the fish fillets on a lined baking tray and cook as per packet instructions (approx 20 minutes).
In a large pan, heat the olive oil, then add the minced garlic and sauté for a minute or so until fragrant, being careful not to let it burn. Add the chilli flakes, paprika and sun-dried tomatoes and continue to sauté for a few more minutes before adding the chicken stock, cream and tomato puree. Allow to bubble for 5 - 10 minutes before throwing in the spinach to wilt along with the basil. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. When the fish is nearly cooked, toss the courgetti into the sauce for a few minutes to quickly coat and warm through. Serve straightaway with the fish fresh out of the oven.
