High Liner® Haddock with Spinach and White Bean Ragout is a wholesome and satisfying family meal perfect for busy weeknights. Tender pan-seared haddock with the delicious flavour of roasted garlic and herbs is combined with baby spinach and white beans in a mouthwatering broth with a hint of lemon zest. It’s simple to make and offers a symphony of flavours in every bite.

Let’s face it. Life is hectic, and sometimes we find ourselves in a dinner rut, making the same ol’ standby recipes every night. I love cooking and trying new meals, but busy schedules can be a roadblock.

When I look for new recipes to try, I search for dinner solutions that are quick and easy to make but also have flavours I know my family is going to enjoy. 

I recently made this Haddock with Spinach and White Bean Ragout, and my family has not stopped raving about how incredible it was. I’ve already made it three times in the last couple of weeks! You know you have a keeper when you start getting requests.

The star of the show is High Liner® Pan-Sear Roasted Garlic and Herb Haddock. It’s lightly breaded, seasoned with a medley of herbs and spices, and pairs perfectly with the savoury fibre-packed ragout. I love that I can make a restaurant-quality meal in around 30 minutes right on my stovetop!

I typically always have High Liner® products in my kitchen. I grew up eating their fish sticks. My mom was a big fan of the classic fish and chips dinners – something her mom would make for her and her sisters when they were young, too!

High Liner® is a proud Canadian brand celebrating its 125th anniversary in 2024. They were founded way back in 1899! What’s cool about High Liner® is that they’ve kept families in mind with their meals, ensuring there’s something for everyone at the dinner table. 

I appreciate their commitment to sustainability – they only source the best seafood and have been doing so for 125 years. Serving quality products is important to me, so I reach for High Liner® seafood products when selecting ingredients for my family’s meals.
