Ingredients
- 4 pieces (4-6 ounces each) Grouper fillets
- 2 tablespoons (julienned) Ginger
- 4 stalks (sliced into thin strips) Scallions
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce (low-sodium)
- 1 teaspoon Rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon Avocado oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 cups Water
Directions
Step 1
Season the grouper fillets with sea salt and black pepper on both sides. Set aside.
Step 2
Prepare the steamer by bringing 2 cups of water to a simmer in a large pot or wok. Place a steamer basket or heat-safe plate inside.
Step 3
Place the grouper fillets on a heat-safe plate that fits inside your steamer. Scatter the julienned ginger on top of the fillets.
Step 4
Carefully place the plate with the fillets into the steamer. Cover with a lid and steam for 8-10 minutes, or until the grouper is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Step 5
While the fish steams, prepare the sauce. In a small bowl, mix together the low-sodium soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil.
Step 6
Once the fish is cooked, remove it from the steamer carefully. Pour the soy sauce mixture over the fish and top with the sliced scallions.
Step 7
In a small skillet, heat the avocado oil over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Pour the hot oil over the scallions and fish to release the aroma.
Step 8
Serve immediately while hot, paired with steamed vegetables or cauliflower rice for a complete low-carb meal.
