Soy and ginger steamed fish with broccolini is a healthy and flavorful dish that combines tender white fish with the vibrant flavors of ginger and teriyaki sauce. Paired with steamed broccolini and basmati rice, it's a balanced meal that's perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Rinse 1 cup of basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
- In a medium saucepan, add the rinsed rice and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender.
- Fluff the rice with a fork and keep it covered to stay warm.
- While the rice is cooking, prepare the fish. Rinse the white fish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Set aside.
- Trim the ends off the broccolini and cut any large pieces in half lengthwise to ensure they cook evenly.
- In a small bowl, combine 1/3 cup teriyaki sauce and 1 tablespoon of finely grated fresh ginger root. Stir well to blend the flavors.
- If you have a steamer basket, place it over a pot of simmering water. If not, you can use a large pot with a steamer insert or a heatproof plate on a rack inside the pot.
- Place the fish fillets on one side of the steamer basket and arrange the broccolini on the other side.
- Drizzle half of the ginger-teriyaki sauce over the fish fillets. Reserve the remaining sauce for later.
- Cover the pot and steam for about 8-10 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork and the broccolini is tender-crisp.
- Divide the steamed fish and broccolini among the serving plates.
- Spoon the remaining ginger-teriyaki sauce over the fish.
- Sprinkle the thinly sliced scallions over the fish and broccolini for added freshness and flavor.
- Serve the steamed fish and broccolini with a side of the fluffy basmati rice.
- This dish is best enjoyed immediately while everything is hot and flavorful. Savor the delicate, ginger-infused fish with the crisp-tender broccolini and fragrant rice.
Tips:
- Make sure to use fresh white fish for the best flavor and texture.
- Ginger root can be finely grated for a more refined texture or minced for a bit more bite.
- Be mindful of the steaming time to avoid overcooking the fish, which can make it tough.
- Use a steamer basket or a steaming rack to ensure the fish cooks evenly.
