Jerk-Rubbed Tilapia
Phase 1
Serves 4/ Prep time: 10 minutes/ Cook time: 8 minutes
Jerk seasoning is usually associated with meats or poultry but it can be very tasty when sprinkled on fish. This Jamaican spice mix can have many different ingredients but most include allspice, which are also known as pimento berries. The word “jerk” is thought to have derived from the practice of poking holes in the meat or poultry to get better penetration of the spices.

Haddock with Cucumber Mint Salsa
Phase 3
Serves 4/ Prep Time: 15 minutes/ Cook Time: 10 minutes
The various shades of green in this salsa are not hidden at all by the creamy yogurt addition and you might be reminded of tzatziki when you first taste it. The cool flavor of the chopped mint comes from the menthol in the herb. Menthol is a common treatment for digestive issues, colds, flu, and nausea. Mint can also boost the immunity and cleanse the blood.

½ cup grated English cucumber, with the liquid squeezed out
1 kiwi, peeled and chopped
2 tablespoons chopped fresh

Phase 1
Serves 4/ Prep time: 10 minutes, plus 1 hour to chill/ Cook time: 10 minutes
Friday night dinners in the 1970s often featured soggy, tasteless fish burgers that were drenched in ketchup to make them palatable. If you stay away from fish burgers because of bad memories, these moist flavorful patties will be a wonderful surprise. The fresh chopped salmon is the ingredient that makes the difference and elevates these burgers to a fine dining level.
