Saffron And Orange Poached Halibut Recipe
5 from 2 ratings
Saffron is one of those intimidating spices that many people love to eat, but have no idea how to handle. Handpicked stamens of the crocus sativus, saffron is also somewhat rare and very expensive, costing anywhere from $500 to $5000 a pound. Luckily, you only need a pinch or two to add tremendous saffron flavor to a meal. Adding saffron to risotto and other rice dishes is a great way to start experimenting with it. When buying saffron, make sure the threads are bright red and dry. Served on a bed of sautéed spinach, this dish has very little fat and loads of healthy protein and iron. The subtle flavor of saffron, orange, and garlic add a punch to the dish without adding a ton of calories.
