Ingredients

• 4 pieces (6 ounces each) grouper fillet
• 2 tablespoons (julienned) fresh ginger
• 4 stalks (cut into 2-inch strips) scallions
• 3 tablespoons coconut aminos
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon fish sauce
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 cups (for steaming) water

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the grouper fillets under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel.

Step 2

Sprinkle the fillets evenly with sea salt and black pepper on both sides. Set aside.

Step 3

Prepare a steaming setup by filling a large pot or steamer with 4 cups of water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Place the grouper fillets on a heatproof plate or shallow dish that fits inside your steamer. Ensure the fillets are spaced apart to allow even cooking.

Step 5

Scatter the julienned ginger and scallions evenly over the grouper fillets.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix coconut aminos, sesame oil, fish sauce, and lime juice to create a fragrant keto-friendly sauce.

Step 7

Drizzle half of the sauce over the fish, reserving the rest for serving later.

Step 8

Place the plate or shallow dish into the steamer and cover with a lid. Reduce the heat to medium and steam the fish for 10-12 minutes, or until the fillets are opaque and easily flake with a fork.

Step 9

While the fish is steaming, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat until shimmering, about 2 minutes.

Step 10

Remove the steamed fish from the steamer and carefully pour the hot olive oil over the fillets to release the aromas of the ginger and scallions.

Step 11

Serve the grouper immediately with the reserved sauce drizzled on top or on the side for dipping.

Step 12

Enjoy your Keto Steamed Grouper with Ginger and Scallions as a wholesome, low-carb main dish.
