Basic Steamed Fish

I got this from about.com. i am looking for more recipes to use with my new bamboo steamer. i have a 2 layer steamer, so i was able to put the fish on the bottom rack and vegetables on the top and dinner was done in 10 minutes! i used tilapia fillets.

Steps

Prepare the wok for steaming.
Rinse the fish fillets and pat dry with paper towels.
In a small bowl , whisk the rice wine or sherry , sugar , salt and sesame oil.
Place the fish fillets on a deep , heat-proof plate that will fit inside the steamer basket.
Pour the rice wine mixture over the fish.
Sprinkle with the chopped green onion.
Cover and steam the fish over high heat until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Serve hot , garnished with the chopped cilantro and lemon wedges.

Ingredients

fish fillets, mirin, granulated sugar, salt, sesame oil, green onion, cilantro, lemon
