The Meal Plan: Japanese Fish Feast

Tonight we're keeping it light and healthy with Japanese fish recipes. Rather than churn out a bunch of sub-par nigiri sushi (we're still practicing), check out some more basic, traditional fish preparations that'll have that steak in the fridge mooing with envy. Whip up a batch of easy sushi rice and sharpen your best knife: it's Iron Chef time.
