Ingredients

• 300 grams whitefish fillets (such as cod or haddock), cooked and flaked
• 120 grams low-fat plain Greek yogurt
• 2 stalks celery, finely chopped
• 0.5 medium red onion, finely diced
• 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Start by cooking the whitefish fillets if they are not already pre-cooked. Poach, steam, or bake the fillets until they are tender and opaque. Allow to cool, then flake into small pieces with a fork.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked and flaked whitefish, low-fat Greek yogurt, finely chopped celery, diced red onion, and fresh dill.

Step 3

Add the lemon juice and Dijon mustard to the bowl. Stir the mixture gently until everything is evenly combined.

Step 4

Season the salad with salt and black pepper to taste, adjusting as needed.

Step 5

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the salad to an airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 6

Serve the low-fat whitefish salad on whole-grain bread, in lettuce wraps, or use it as a dip for crackers and vegetables.
