This flavorful recipe gets its unique, trendy flavor from convenient, canned coconut milk and curry paste. The low-sodium chicken broth helps keep the sodium down -- and the flavor up.

Ingredients

• 1 1⁄2 pounds fish fillets (flounder salmon or other mild fish)
•   coarsely ground black pepper, to taste
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 can sliced potatoes (drained)
• 1 can low-sodium chicken broth
• 1 teaspoon garlic (chopped)
• 1 cup canned, light coconut milk
• 2⁄3 tablespoon Thai green curry paste

Directions

1. Season fish fillets with pepper.
2. Heat oil in a large skillet and brown fish on both sides.
3. Add potatoes, broth and garlic to the skillet.
