Ingredients

Method

  1. Mix in grated ginger and lime juice during preparation before steaming.
  2. Clean the fish, making shallow cuts on both sides to allow the flavors to penetrate.
  3. Place the fish in a steamer, adding the pickled chili slices, scallions, soy sauce, rice wine, and ginger.
  4. Steam for 12-15 minutes until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
  5. Drizzle with hot oil for extra flavor.
  6. Cook fish and seafood to an internal temperature of 63°C (145°F) before serving.
