View ProfileIn this Japanese-inspired dish, light and flaky swai—a mild white fish similar to tilapia—is baked to perfection and served with roasted shiitake mushrooms and stir-fried bok choy. A citrusy ponzu sauce brings this whole dish together in sweet and savory harmony. Enjoy another healthy yet satisfying offering from Chef Akhtar.
