branzino @ 8407 kitchen|bar

A mild white fish, branzino is tasty and delicate. And, it pairs perfectly with strong and salty foods, like olives and capers.

While dining at 8407 Kitchen | Bar in Silver Spring, MD recently, I ordered the branzino. It was served with vegetables, capers, black olives and a savory black olive coulis. The mild Mediterranean fish soaked up the sauce, and it was delicious!

Rich in omega-3s and B vitamins, one 4-ounce serving of branzino provides a boatload of protein (21g) in a low-saturated fat, low-calorie package (110 calories).

TELL US: Have you tried branzino? What is your favorite mild white fish?
