Seared Soy-Butter Barramundi
For this exquisitely balanced and nutritious meal, Chef Esther sears the mild, white-fleshed fish, then glazes it in a savory, umami-rich sauce of butter and light soy sauce (there’s extra on the side for drizzling). Bonus: Barramundi is sustainably farmed and rich in heart-healthy omega-3s. She serves each fillet atop a bed of tri-color quinoa and fluffy white rice, with tender-crisp sautéed napa cabbage and bok choi on the side. High in protein and good-for-you fats, this meal will keep you energized without weighing you down.
