Grilled Fish with Creamy Lemon & Basil Sauce Recipe

This is a great flavoured Easy Low Carb Dinners recipe which combines lemon, basil and garlic. As well as being easy to prepare and great tasting, it's also a great way to include fish into your Low Carb diet. 

We've used barramundi fillets in this recipe, but you can use any firm white fish you like, but try and keep the skin on. We grilled the fish initially but finished it off in the oven to keep the fish succulent.

• 12 Cherry Tomatoes
• 12 Basil Leaves or 1 tsp. Basil Paste
• 1 tbsp. Olive Oil
• 1 Cup Light n Creamy Evaporative Milk
• Juice of 1 Lemon
• 3 large cloves garlic, unpeeled
• Puree
• 1 can white beans (cannelloni), drained and rinsed

Recipe Method:

Preheat Oven 200C (400F).

Line a baking dish or tray with baking paper and place cherry tomatoes and unpeeled garlic cloves.  Drizzle a tsp. olive oil over and bake for 20-30 mins until cooked. Take out and set aside.

Meanwhile place rinsed white beans in a processer with an extra clove garlic, sour cream, lemon and season with S&P.  Blend until smooth.  Taste, add more lemon or garlic to taste. Once you are happy with it place in a small bowl and set aside.

Heat a non-stick frypan, add olive oil and cook fish on 1 side for 2 minutes then turn and grill for 1 more minute.  Then place on a tray lined with baking paper, cover with foil and bake in oven for 10-15 minutes depending on the thickness of fish.

While fish is cooking take your baked tomatoes and garlic out of oven.  Place half the tomatoes in a blender (or you can use stick processer) with lemon juice, basil leaves, milk. Peel skin off garlic, squeeze with other ingredients. Now blend until all smooth. Taste; add more lemon if needed and season with S&P.   Place in a small pot and heat on stove on low.  Once warmed, add cornflour mixture and stir, this should thicken.  If you like a thin sauce then omit the cornflour step.

Check to see if fish is cooked. Take out of oven.

Set up 2 plates, divide Puree onto plates.  If you want you can warm this first in microwave. Place Fish on top then drizzle sauce over and place remaining cooked cherry tomatoes.

Serve with a little side salad or steamed vegetables.
