I'm not sure that is a good idea because oil is very calorie dense. 2 tblsp fish oil is about 250 calories. It's probably better to have a bigger snack that is 250 calories, but much more satiating, perhaps a boiled egg smashed on a slice of toast, which is only about 160 calories, and a pretty satisfying snack.
The OP's recommendation is probably very light on protein, which durimng a weight loss phase will result is a high percentage of muscle loss, when you really want to be losing fat. Indeed lean meat like chicken should be the focus rather than the aside, and you should get some protein in every meal.
Lean chicken is a good low calorie protein source, so meals like chicken breast with veges - you can't go wrong.
If you can also do some weight training to help keep your muscle mass, then practically every pound you lose will be fat; not muscle.
