Easy Asian Style Low Fat Microwave Steamed Fish
Dead easy fish, always tasty and good! the flavours are vietnamese/thai/balinese. you can add any other favourite asian flavours to the marinade, get creative! Australian measurements used (1 t = 20mls)you can use lemon juice if you have to but lime is really much nicer. if you have some, add a chopped kaffir lime leaf. i leave the peanut butter out on mine but my husband loves it.
Steps
Mix all marinade ingredients except peanut butter in a small bowl or cup.
Taste to check for seasoning.
If you are adding the peanut butter , add it to the mix and stir to create a thick paste.
Spread over frozen or fresh fish fillets.
Put fillets onto a plate with a microwave cover or place them in a shallow covered container.
If fish are frozen , cook on high for at least 6-7 minutes.
If thawed , about 4-5 minutes should be sufficient.
This will change depending on your microwave so do check the fish by checking the colour in the centre of the fillet.
Serve with rice and a crisp salad.
