Sweet Black Pepper Fish

I have used this recipe from the january/february 04 issue of cooking light magazine several times. it is easily and quickly prepared, but best of all, it is a terrific dish. if i can't find lemongrass, i use lemon zest. i have also added a teaspoon of cornstarch dissolved in a little water to the dish during the last two minutes to give the sauce a little more body.

Steps

Combine 1 / 4 cup water , sugar , and fish sauce in a large nonstick skillet.
Bring to a boil , stirring to dissolve the sugar.
Add lemongrass , garlic , and pepper.
Cook 1 1 / 2 minutes or until slightly reduced.
Add 1 / 4 cup water , onions , and fish and cook over medium-high heat 7 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork , turning once.
Sprinkle with cilantro.
