Heart-healthy tips

  • Cook fish to 145°F / 63°C, until opaque and it flakes easily (FDA).
  • Greek yogurt replaces a butter or cream sauce.

Storage & Meal Prep Tips

Applies to: Cooked delicate fish dish, after cooking. Times assume safe preparation, prompt cooling when needed, a refrigerator at 40°F / 4°C or below, and a freezer at 0°F / -18°C or below.

Refrigerator: After cooking: refrigerate within 2 hours and eat within 3–4 days.

Freezer: Does not freeze well. Best Fresh — delicate cooked fish turns dry and crumbly after freezing. Freeze raw, well-wrapped fillets instead and thaw overnight in the refrigerator.

To reheat or serve: Reheat gently, covered, at 275°F until hot to 165°F, or enjoy leftovers cold over greens.

Meal prep tip: Prep sauces, salsas and vegetables up to 2 days ahead; cook the fish just before serving.
