Ingredients
- 4 fillets White fish fillets (such as cod or tilapia)
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Coconut aminos
- 1 inch piece, sliced into thin strips Ginger
- 3 cloves, minced Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 2 stalks, sliced diagonally Green onions
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh cilantro leaves
- 1 thinly sliced Red chili
- 2 wedges Lime
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Prepare the fish fillets by rinsing them under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, coconut aminos, sesame oil, garlic, and salt. This will be the marinade for the fish.
Step 3
Place the fish fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Allow the fish to marinate for about 10 minutes.
Step 4
While the fish is marinating, prepare a steaming setup using a steam basket or bamboo steamer. Fill a pot with enough water to not touch the bottom of the steamer, and bring to a gently rolling boil.
Step 5
Arrange the marinated fish fillets in the steamer basket, leaving space between each piece to allow steam to circulate.
Step 6
Top the fish with sliced ginger, green onions, red chili, and a few cilantro leaves.
Step 7
Place the steam basket over the boiling water, cover with a lid, and steam for approximately 8-10 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Step 8
Once cooked, carefully remove the fish from the steamer and transfer to a serving plate.
Step 9
Sprinkle the remaining cilantro leaves over the top of the fish and serve immediately with fresh lime wedges on the side.
