In addition to having a unique and fresh taste, halibut, a popular ingredient used in this recipe, is a rich source of different kinds of nutrients. A lot of high quality protein can be found in this fish, besides important trace minerals like potassium, phosphorous, magnesium and selenium. This fish is also rich in omega-3 essential fatty acids, vitamin B6, niacin and vitamin B12. Zucchini has been included in this rich not only to impart it a new flavor but also to provide dietary fiber, magnesium, folate, etc. While magnesium is required for smooth contraction of your body muscles and help maintain the bone health, dietary fiber helps prevent constipation and makes you feel full and helps in weight loss. Folate helps in metabolizing proteins, cell growth and synthesizing DNA.
