Chinese Steamed Fish Delicate and Flavorful Chinese Steamed Fish with Ginger and Scallions Ingredients: 1 whole white fish (such as sea bass, tilapia, or snapper), about 1 to 1.5 lbs, cleaned and scaled 2 tablespoons soy sauce 1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine or dry sherry 1 tablespoon sesame oil 3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced 2-inch piece fresh ginger, julienned 3 scallions, cut into thin strips Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional) Salt to taste Directions: Rinse the fish and pat dry. Make 2-3 diagonal slashes on each side to allow flavors to penetrate. Lightly season the fish inside and out with salt. Place the fish on a heatproof plate that fits inside your steamer. Scatter half the ginger and garlic on the fish. Steam the fish over boiling water for 8-10 minutes, depending on thickness, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily. While the fish steams, mix soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, and sesame oil in a small bowl. Carefully remove the fish from the steamer. Discard the ginger and garlic used in steaming. Pour the sauce evenly over the fish. Top with the remaining ginger, garlic, and scallions. For extra flavor, briefly heat a small amount of oil until smoking and pour it over the fish to sizzle the aromatics. Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired and serve immediately with steamed rice.
