Why is mackerel so special? It contains a large percentage of omega-3 fatty acids, even twice as much as salmon, and is therefore great for regulating blood pressure. It is also rich in selenium, which together with proteins creates antioxidants and strengthens the immune system.

What makes it special as a food for a perfectly balanced meal is that it contains only 100 calories in 205 grams.

Of course, prepared according to the recipe we chose - it also has an exceptional taste. The dish is ideal both for holidays and for an ordinary day.

ingredients:

  • 3 stalks of leeks
  • 5 tablespoons of oil
  • 200 g of rice
  • 1/2 cup tomato juice
  • so
  • beaver
  • 1/2 cup olives
  • 2 pieces of mackerel

<strong>Preparation: </strong>

The leek is cut into rings and fried in a little fat directly in the pan in which you will prepare the dish.

After it becomes soft, add the washed rice with one cup of water.

It is mixed and, after the rice swells, tomato juice is poured in and seasoned with salt and pepper.

Mackerel is cleaned, cut into pieces and placed in a baking tray together with olives.

Pour two more cups of water, then put the mackerel in the oven to brown.

Bake the dish with mackerel at 200 degrees for 45 minutes or until it is ready.
