CURRY ORANGE SWAI



Curry Orange Swai image

I came up with this tasty swai recipe when I was craving something vaguely Indian, but also wanted to keep it simple and light and use the ingredients I had on hand. I serve it with white rice and a side of stir-fried Asian veggies such as bok choy with garlic, oyster sauce, and cashews.

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 (8 ounce) fillets swai fish
2 teaspoons ground black pepper, or to taste
1 teaspoon curry powder
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 (1 1/2 inch) piece fresh ginger, grated
2 cloves garlic, crushed, or more to taste
1 cup orange juice
1 tablespoon sambal oelek

Steps:

  • Lay fish in a glass dish; season both sides with black pepper and curry powder. Pour soy sauce on top, making sure to coat both sides. Marinate for at least 20 minutes.
  • Heat olive oil in a sauce pan on medium-high heat. Place fish in hot oil and cook until browned, about 3 minutes per side. Add ginger and ginger into the open spaces of the pan; cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir frequently to prevent burning.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low. Pour any remaining marinade into the pan, along with the orange juice.

SWAI WITH SPICY LENTILS



Swai With Spicy Lentils image

Swai is a terrific choice for those who don't like a fishy fish. It is economical, low in fat, and low in calories. This recipe is an adaptation of another I'd seen here on food.com, but I had made so many substitutions I decided to submit it so I had a more accurate picture nutritionally.

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup lentils
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
2 cups fat-free low-sodium chicken broth
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons cumin
1 tablespoon ginger, grated
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 teaspoons coriander
1 lb swai fillet
4 cups cabbage, chopped

Steps:

  • Combine lentils, turmeric and stock in a saucepan. Bring to a boil then reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
  • When lentils are ready (or just before) In a large pan heat , stir fry cumin, ginger, and cayenne for a few seconds then add lentils. Stir to combine.
  • Add lemon juice and coriander. Stir gently.
  • Lay the Swai atop the lentils, cover the pan, and cook on low heat for 10 minutes, turn the fish and cook for 10 minutes more.
  • Absolutely not necessary, but we serve this over chopped cabbage and use a little bit of sauce similar to that on a fish taco (with non-fat yogurt as a substitute for mayo). When I have found our perfect combo, I will amend this recipe to add it.
