This Asian-influenced fish entrée offers a range in portion sizes. If you haven't had any servings of meat or alternatives for the day, choose the larger portion; if you've already had 3 oz (90 g), choose the smaller one. Low-sodium soy sauce has 40 per cent less sodium than regular. Serve with sautéed greens and coarse bulgur.
