Steamed Whole Red Snapper
This red snapper dish was inspired by the flavors of Asia.
Serves: Serves: 3 to 4
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 pounds red snapper, head and tail on; washed, cleaned, scaled, and trimmed
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
- 5 scallions, sliced small
- 2 tablespoons tamari
- 1 to 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 1 scallion, slivered lengthwise
- Handful cilantro, chopped
Directions:
- Steam the fish for 10 to 15 minutes.
- To prepare the sauce, heat the oil in a heavy skillet and gently sauté garlic and scallions until just soft but not brown. Remove from the heat and add the tamari.
- When the fish is done, drain accumulated juices and pour the sauce over fish.
- Garnish with slivered scallion and cilantro.
- Any small, whole, white-fleshed fish can be steamed by this method. Steam the fish on a heavy, restaurant-style platter that fits inside the top of a steaming utensil. A large wok, bamboo steamer, or a traditional fish poacher with removable "tray" modified to lift fish above the boiling water are all suitable.
