Notes

For salad, use either white rice or wild rice blend; reduce cooking time according to packet instructions. Use any firm white fish fillet, such as snapper, ling or barramundi. Don't leave fish to marinate in the lemon mixture; the acid in the lemon will start to cook the fish white standing.
