John Dory With Wax Beans And Wheat Berry Salad

Healthy fish dishes can often feel bland, but Todd Mitgang of New York City's Crave Fishbar has whipped up a complex recipe that will be kind to your waistline and your taste buds.

He starts with John Dory, a sweet, delicate fish that can take on a lot of flavor. Mitgang pan-sears the fish and then adds a few extra elements. The first is a warm wheat berry salad — wheat berry is a great healthy alternative to rice or corn, and in Mitgang's recipe he adds a few more ingredients like pistachio nuts and shallots to make it even more flavorful. He also adds blanched wax beans for a vegetable component. Lastly, he adds a basil pistou sauce for even more complexity and tops the fish off with some microgreens.
