Yield Makes 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (1-pound) red snapper fillet with skin (3/4 inch thick)
1 tablespoon medium-dry Sherry
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 (3-inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and cut into 1/16-inch-thick matchsticks (1 1/2 inches long)
1 scallion, cut lengthwise into 1 1/2-inch-long very thin strips (1/3 cup)
2 fresh serrano chiles, seeded and cut lengthwise into very thin strips
1/2 teaspoon Asian sesame oil

Steps:

  • Arrange a 9-inch metal cake rack or steamer basket in a 12- to 14-inch wok or a deep 12-inch skillet (with a domed lid) and add enough water to reach just below rack. Cover wok and bring water to a boil.
  • Score skin of fish in several places, then put on an oiled heatproof plate that will fit into wok or skillet with 1 inch clearance around plate. Stir together Sherry and salt in a small bowl, then rub mixture onto both sides of fish, leaving skin side up.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a small skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sauté ginger, scallion, and chiles, stirring, until fragrant but not browned, about 30 seconds, and spoon over fish. Carefully transfer fish (on plate) to rack in wok and cover tightly, then steam until fish is just cooked through, 7 to 8 minutes. Carefully remove plate from wok and sprinkle fish with sesame oil.

I'm not a fan of ginger, so I omitted it from the recipe. The steamed red snapper still came out great. The fish was cooked perfectly, and the sauce was delicious.

This recipe is a great way to cook red snapper. The fish is cooked perfectly, and the sauce is delicious. However, I found that the recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste. Next time, I'll use less chili peppers.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my steamed red snapper came out a bit dry. I think I might have overcooked it. Next time, I'll be more careful with the cooking time.
