A quick and easy fish dish that uses literally any white fish you can get your hands on. I used skate here which is quite a flat fish but just add a couple of minutes to the cooking time if you’re using a plumper fillet.

This is a great dish for anyone that isn’t normally that keen on fish as the flavours in the sauce are intense. What’s more it can be cooked in less than 15 minutes.

SERVES 1 • READY IN 15 mins

20g chorizo, peeled and finely sliced (58 cals)

1 white fish fillet, approx 125g (100 cals)

2 spring onions, peeled and chopped (9 cals)

2 tomatoes, roughly chopped (28 cals)

Freshly ground black pepper

1 tbsp (15ml) dry vermouth (Noilly Prat) (23 cals)

Heat a frying pan on a high heat and toss in the chorizo. Fry for 3-4 minutes, stirring every minute, until crispy. Watch out this can be a smoky process!

Remove the chorizo from the pan using a slotted spoon, leaving the chorizo oil in the pan to fry the fish.
Keeping the heat high, place the fish in the pan, face down, skin side up. Fry for 2 minutes before turning and frying for another 4 until cooked through. Remove the fish from the pan and set aside.

Add the spring onions and tomatoes to the pan and cook for 2 minutes, until the tomatoes start to break up. Season generously with the black pepper. Add the vermouth, re-introduce the chorizo and cook for one more minute.

Place the fish on a serving plate and scoop the sauce over.
