Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Asian     Chinese

Time 25m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound halibut fillet
1 teaspoon coarse sea salt or kosher salt
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
3 tablespoons thinly sliced green onion
1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
1 tablespoon peanut oil
2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
¼ cup lightly packed fresh cilantro sprigs

Steps:

  • Pat halibut dry with paper towels. Rub both sides of fillet with salt. Scatter the ginger over the top of the fish and place onto a heatproof ceramic dish.
  • Place into a bamboo steamer set over several inches of gently boiling water, and cover. Gently steam for 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Pour accumulated water out of the dish and sprinkle the fillet with green onion. Drizzle both soy sauces over the surface of the fish.
  • Heat peanut and sesame oils in a small skillet over medium-high heat until they begin to smoke. When the oil is hot, carefully pour on top of the halibut fillet. The very hot oil will cause the green onions and water on top of the fish to pop and spatter all over; be careful. Garnish with cilantro sprigs and serve immediately.

Provided by Nancie McDermott

Categories     Mains

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons dry sherry or Shaoxing rice wine
2 teaspoons sesame oil
3/4 pound halibut fillets or another white fish such as cod or snapper (skinned if desired)
1/2 teaspoon table salt
2 tablespoons shredded or grated fresh ginger
2 tablespoons mild vegetable oil
3 tablespoons thinly sliced scallion

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, sherry, and sesame oil, and stir well.☞TESTER TIP: Once you begin cooking, this fish comes together very quickly. Have ready your sauce, tongs, and serving plate for the fish before you start cooking.
  • Fill the base of a steamer pan or a wok with about 4 inches (10 cm) of water. Place the steamer basket over the water.
  • Arrange the fish, skin-side down, on a plate that will fit inside the steamer. (If you have more than 1 piece of fish, leave a little space between them.) Lightly season the fish with the salt and then scatter the ginger over the fish.
  • Place the plate in position inside the basket or on the rack, and bring the steaming water to a rolling boil over high heat.
  • When the steam is flowing well, adjust the heat to maintain an even flow, and cover the steamer basket with its lid. Cook until the fish is opaque throughout when checked at the thickest part, 6 to 12 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish. Turn off the heat and leave the fish in the steamer.
  • In a small pan or skillet over medium-high heat, warm the vegetable oil until it is hot but not smoking, about 1 minute.
  • Carefully transfer the fish to a platter, leaving any liquid behind. Quickly pour the soy sauce mixture over the ginger-covered fish, and scatter the scallion on top of the ginger. Slowly drizzle the hot oil over the top of the fish. Serve right away.

The addition of a few lemon slices and sprigs of cilantro enhances the flavor of the fish without masking it.Watch the steaming time so the fish doesn't overcook and become dry.Surround the cooked fish with the vegetables and sauce and you'll have a good, quick meal.

STEAMED HALIBUT WITH LEMONGRASS & GINGER



Steamed Halibut with Lemongrass & Ginger image

This recipe is a copycat of one served at Trilogy restauran in California. Adapted from "CA Wine Country Cooking Secrets." I haven't tried this yet. Recipe requires knowledge of how to use a steamer.

Provided by HeatherFeather

Categories     Halibut

Time 17m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 stalk lemongrass (remove tough outer husk and root end)
1 inch fresh ginger, peeled
3 cloves garlic, peeled
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
3 teaspoons sesame oil
1 1/2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
4 halibut fillets (or Monkfish or Salmon)

Steps:

  • In a food processor, grind up the lemon grass, ginger and garlic into a paste (it will look fibrous).
  • Add remaining ingredients and spread paste on fish.
  • Place in steamer and steam until fish is just beginning to flake, about 6-7 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose a fresh halibut fillet. Look for fillets that are firm to the touch and have a mild, briny smell.
  • Use a steamer basket or insert. This will help to keep the halibut from sticking to the pan and will allow the steam to circulate evenly around the fish.
  • Add aromatics to the water. This will help to infuse the halibut with flavor. Good options include ginger, lemon slices, and bay leaves.
  • Steam the halibut until it is cooked through. The fish should be opaque in color and flake easily with a fork. This will typically take about 10-12 minutes.
  • Make the ginger sauce while the halibut is steaming. This will give the flavors time to meld.
  • Serve the halibut with the ginger sauce and your favorite sides. Roasted vegetables, steamed rice, and quinoa are all good options.

Conclusion:

Steamed halibut with ginger sauce is a delicious and healthy meal that is easy to make. This dish is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. The halibut is steamed until it is tender and flaky, and the ginger sauce adds a bright and flavorful touch. Serve this dish with your favorite sides and enjoy!
