DESCRIPTION:

Wow – for such a low calorie Dinner, this is rammed packed with beautiful flavours! Sea Bass is a beautiful fish. Firm, meaty, an elegant flavour and not too fishy. Add the Butter and Fish Seasoning and on it’s own right it’s top notch. But layer on some buttery and chive New Potatoes, tasty carrots and the unmistakable bite of Asparagus and you have a super healthy yet indulgent plate that excites the tastebuds.

You get a nice helping of protein and carbs, whilst leaving some fat spare for another meal. And as you’ve been so good, treat yourself to some 70% Dark Chocolate dipped in Almond Butter (mmmm!). If you want a smaller portion, drop to one Sea Bass Fillet, halve the butter and plate up 200g of New Potatoes and save 240 calories.
