Ginger-steamed Fish

Total Time: 23 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 8 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 4
• 1 1/2 cups medium grain rice
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 6 teaspoons rice vinegar
• 4 teaspoons sesame oil
• 4 teaspoons soy sauce
• 4 thin fish fillets, such as cod or 4 red snapper (2 pounds total)
• salt
• 4 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
• 3 large green onions, thinly sliced

Recipe

• 1 begin cooking the rice according to package directions.
• 2 whisk together the vegetable oil, vinegar, sesame oil and soy sauce in a small bowl.
• 3 set aside.
• 4 tear off 4 pieces of foil, about 12 x 6 inches each.
• 5 place a fish fillet on each piece of foil.
• 6 turn up the edges of the foil by a few inches around the fish to create a rim around the fish, so that each fillet is in a tray that won't allow liquids to get out but is still open on top.
• 7 season each fillet with salt.
• 8 spoon equal parts of the soy sauce mixture on each fillet.
• 9 sprinkle the ginger and green onions on top.
• 10 set up a large steamer, either bamboo or metal-mesh type, and place 2 packages inside.
• 11 cover and steam until flaky, about 6 to 8 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish.
• 12 repeat with the remaining fillets.
• 13 remove the packages carefully, reserving cooking juices.
• 14 place each fillet over a bed of rice and drizzle with the juices.
