Dukkah-Coated Flathead with Sauteed Greens

Serves 4

For those who aren’t familiar, ‘Dukkah’ is a mixture of nuts, seeds and herbs. It is a far more nutritious alternative to always using breadcrumbs and doesn’t require any extra ingredients like egg-wash when being applied. It is one of my favourite ways to spice up any type of protein (chicken breast, beef fillet etc.) but it is definitely the best when added to white fish, like flathead. It’s also an amazing way to get your kids off fish fingers and onto good quality, nutritious protein. Dukkah comes in a number of flavour varieties and is sold in jars in most supermarkets and food stores. Always check the label of the jar when purchasing your dukkah to ensure that you recognise all of the added ingredients. 

‘Dukkah-coated flathead and sautéed greens’ is definitely a go-to in my household when I’m looking for a delicious, yet quick and easy dinner. Coating the flathead is super easy and you can sauté the greens in a second pan while simultaneously cooking the fish

Here’s the recipe:

You’ll need:

·         600g-800g flathead (150g-200g per person)

·         Dukkah

·         2 bunches of broccolini

·         2 bunches of asparagus

·         Olive oil for cooking

·         Salt, pepper and lemon for seasoning

Method:

1.       Cut flat head into medium-sized strips

2.       Pour dukkah onto plate and spread out evenly

3.       Place piece of flathead onto dukkah and press down lightly so that entire side is coated. Turnover and repeat. Place coated pieces onto plate, ready to be cooked

4.       Put 1-2 tbsp. olive onto heated pan

5.       Once oil is ready, start adding flathead strips – try not to over crowd the pan so that it stays at the right heat. Turn after 1-2 minutes and then remove from heat

6.       While cooking the flathead strips, pour 1-2 tbsp. of olive oil into a second pan for greens

7.       Cut off ends of asparagus and broccolini and place in pan, stirring every so often

8.       Season greens with salt, pepper and a squeeze of lemon

9.       Once they are all cooked, serve immediately

10.   This is also really good as leftovers, if you want to make extra for lunch the next day
