Some years ago I was lucky enough to visit the Florida Keys. There I caught many fish, all freshly cooked by a young chef in a small shack.He simply filleted them, dusted then with a lovely spice mix and cooked them very quickly. The taste and flavour were outstanding. Here below is a version of his recipe, easy and simple to prepare.

- 100g fat free natural yoghourt
- 10g chopped fresh mint
