Equipment

  • Stovetop
  • Dinner Plate
  • Large Saucepan with Lid

Ingredients

  • 12 ounces Monkfish Fillets (2-3 fillets)
  • 3 teaspoons Ginger Grated or finely chopped ginger, or 1-2 teaspoons ground ginger
  • 2 cloves Garlic Finely chopped
  • Salt To taste
  • Ground Black Pepper To taste
  • 2 teaspoon Sesame Oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Soy Sauce
  • 2 Green Onions Finely sliced on the diagonal

Instructions

  • Cut fish into big chunks. Mix with the ginger and garlic and season to taste. Place on a dinner plate in one layer. Fill a large saucepan halfway with water and bring to a boil.
  • Place the plate with the fish on top of the saucepan and cover with the saucepan lid.
  • Steam for 7-8 minutes or until opaque and cooked through but not quite flaking. Timing will depend on how close the plate is to the boiling water- be careful not to overcook.
  • Meanwhile, heat sesame oil and soy sauce in a saucepan or in the microwave. Arrange fish on 2 serving plates. Drizzle with the soy sauce mixture and sprinkle with the spring onions. Serve with rice.
