Provided by รก-174535

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound fresh or frozen cod or other firm white fish
2 small lemons
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
2 teaspoons sugar
1/4 cup butter
2 (5-ounce) packages baby spinach
2 tablespoons water
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Thaw fish, if frozen. Rinse fish and pat dry with paper towels. Cut fish into 4 pieces and set aside. Thinly slice one lemon and set aside. Finely shred peel from remaining lemon and then juice the lemon. In a small bowl combine the lemon peel and juice, ginger, and sugar. Set aside. In a large skillet, melt the butter. Add the four fish pieces to the skillet and cook for about 1-2 minutes on each side, until lightly browned. Don't overcook. Add the lemon juice, ginger, sugar mixture. Cover and cook for about 2 - 3 minutes. Use a spatula to carefully lift the fish from the skillet and transfer to a platter. Cover with foil to keep warm. Add lemon slices to the skillet. Cook about 2 minutes or until lemon slices are softened and sauce is slightly thickened. Meanwhile, place spinach in a very large, microwave-safe bowl. Sprinkle with the water. Microwave on 100-percent power (high) about 2 minutes or just until wilted, tossing once after 1 minute. To serve, divide spinach among four shallow serving bowls. Top with fish and sauce. Add lemon slices and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling around while you're cooking.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your dish will taste. Whenever possible, use fresh fish, vegetables, and herbs.
  • Don't Overcook the Fish: Fish is a delicate protein, so it's important to not overcook it. Cook the fish until it is just opaque in the center, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Use a Good Quality Soy Sauce: Soy sauce is a key ingredient in this dish, so make sure you use a good quality one. Look for a soy sauce that is naturally brewed and has a rich, umami flavor.
  • Serve Immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is cooked. The fish will be at its most tender and flavorful when it is hot off the pan.

Conclusion:

Lemon ginger fish is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. The combination of lemon and ginger gives the fish a bright and refreshing flavor, while the soy sauce and honey add a touch of sweetness and umami. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
