Greek Style Roasted Anchovies

Real Good Fish member, Lynn, shared this recipe with us from www.olivetomato.com "This may simply be one of the healthiest meals you will ever eat. There is not one ingredient in this recipe that is not good for you. Everything in this dish will not only benefit your body but will make your taste buds happy too! Starting with the anchovies, which are an excellent source of the hard to find omega-3 fatty acids that may protect from stroke and from inflammation, and they are also a healthy source of protein. The anchovies are blended with a mixture of onions, garlic, oregano and olive oil. All these ingredients are excellent sources of antioxidants while the olive oil gives us an additional boost of the good monounsaturated fats that can help lower bad cholesterol."

Pan-Seared Sea Bass with Citrus-Heirloom Tomato Vinaigrette

From brainfood blog: Seabass is very versatile to cook and does well with simply salt/pepper over the grill or under the broiler. It is on the drier side so marinades are nice or even just a coating of olive oil before grilling. I almost always cook it plainly then make some sort of sauce to put on it after, our kids love it that way. We love it with our spin on a traditional tartar sauce that is so simple; we just mix nonfat plain greek yogurt with relish (or capers) and mustard."

Mediterranean Style Swordfish

From www.themediterraneandish.com "As we follow the Mediterranean diet, my family eats fish fairly frequentlyâ€“twice per week, most weeks.

Aside from Italy's many health benefits, swordfish is like the steak of the sea, its satisfying, sturdy, and takes well to serious spices and marinades."

Spicy Grilled Squid (Ojingeo-tonggui)

This recipe is from the blog, Maangchi. They write "This spicy grilled squid is a favorite in Korean bars, and if you've ever been to one, you couldn't have missed it. A huge grilled squid covered in shiny, juicy, spicy sauce in the middle of a table full of drinkers. It's not a dish you eat alone, you share it with friends, the more the merrier, usually with makgeolli or soju. But it's not just for bars and booze! If you and your family like squid and spicy food, it makes for a great side dish with rice at dinner. But whether it's in a bar or at home, it's best presented to the table still sizzling, and then cutting the rings with scissors just before eating. Watching that performance will stimulate anyone's appetite!"

This recipe was in the October 1992 issue of Gourmet Magazine. Serves 2. Photo is from RGF member Haven Brearton.
