Cooking tip

  • For best results when stovetop cooking, use a non-stick frying pan to prevent barramundi fillets from sticking.
  • Our Barramundi fillets are hand-cut so cooking time may vary. You can check your barramundi is cooked by ensuring it reaches 145F.

total miss

The fish has skin on, and very little flesh - the two small pieces were not even one serving. Picture not accurate either - there were no cherry tomatoes included. Chorizo crumbles were also skimpy. Kick it portion wise and please put in better fish! That said - thank you for not putting in the usual KALE - hate it!!

Barramundi--HUGE MISS!

We have been G&T subscribers for almost a year and have order and enjoyed this dish numerous times. This week was the first time the dish was prepared with barramundi rather than cod. It was a complete miss! As other reviewers have noted, the barramundi comes with the skin on, and there is a significant amount of dark fish next to the skin. So, unless you like that stronger taste, there is less fish to eat. We found it totally unappetizing. (I wish I had been able to include a photo with this review.) We also found the barramundi more fishy tasting than cod. My husband didn't even finish his portion. Furthermore, the barramundi is sourced from Vietnam. (You can read about barramundi from South Asia many places online and make you own conclusions.) Since G&T seems to have substituted barramundi for cod in all of their meals, we will no longer be ordering any of those in the future. While I'm at it, one other thing that has been an annoyance with this dish and many others is the substitution of broccoli and zucchini or squash for vegetables that originally came with the meal. In fact, the description of this dish still says it comes with "seasonal greens," which used to be kale. Green beans and asparagus that used to come with other meals are now also broccoli and zucchini. Overall, not as high-end an eating experience as it used to be.

Bring back the Cod!

I did not enjoy the Barramundi at all. I thought it was fishy. The sauce was tasty, but the ingredients did not go well together.
I have noticed that all the Cod dishes are being replaced with Barramundi. I would really prefer Cod. It is a whiter, thicker fish provided without skin!

Great combination of textures and flavors

Hearty but not heavy, flavorful, and nutritious!
