Steamed Whitefish Fillets Recipes

LEMONY STEAMED FISH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Cut 6 foil squares large enough for each fillet.
• Center fillets on the foil squares and sprinkle each with dill weed, onion powder, parsley, paprika, seasoned salt, lemon pepper, and garlic powder. Sprinkle lemon juice over each fillet. Fold foil over fillets to make a pocket and fold the edges to seal. Place sealed packets on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 30 minutes.

STEAMED FISH WITH GINGER

Steps:

• Pat halibut dry with paper towels. Rub both sides of fillet with salt. Scatter the ginger over the top of the fish and place onto a heatproof ceramic dish.
• Place into a bamboo steamer set over several inches of gently boiling water, and cover. Gently steam for 10 to 12 minutes.
• Pour accumulated water out of the dish and sprinkle the fillet with green onion. Drizzle both soy sauces over the surface of the fish.
• Heat peanut and sesame oils in a small skillet over medium-high heat until they begin to smoke. When the oil is hot, carefully pour on top of the halibut fillet. The very hot oil will cause the green onions and water on top of the fish to pop and spatter all over; be careful. Garnish with cilantro sprigs and serve immediately.

CHINESE STEAMED WHITE FISH FILLET WITH TOFU (CANTONESE STYLE)

Steps:

• Bring about 1 1/2 inches of water to boil in a pot fitted with a steamer basket.
• In a large bowl, stir together the chile, garlic, ginger, and black bean sauce. Stir in dark and white soy sauces, vegetable oil, sugar, and white pepper. In a small cup, mix together the cornstarch and water. Stir into the sauce. Cut fish fillets into thin strips, add to bowl, and coat well.
• When water in steamer has reached a boil, carefully place the tofu cubes in a single layer in the basket, and steam, covered, for 2 minutes. Place the fish strips on top of the tofu; cover and steam for another 3 minutes.
• Remove and garnish with chopped green onion. Serve with steamed white rice and stir-fried or steamed Asian vegetables.

SIMPLEST STEAMED FISH

Steps:

• Put at least 1 inch of water in the bottom of a steamer, cover and bring to a boil. Lay the fish on the steamer's rack, making sure the rack is elevated above the water, and cover again. Steam 4 to 8 minutes, or until the fish is done. (A good-size halibut steak may take 10 or even 12 minutes.)
• Remove the fish to a warm platter and drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice. Cut into serving portions, sprinkle with coarse salt and serve.

BAKED WHITEFISH

Steps:

• In heavy pan, saute onion in butter& 3 Tbsp of white wine over medium heat, do not brown.

• Arrange fish fillets over onion in dish overlapping thin edges.
• Sprinkle with S& P, and add garlic.
• Pour 1/3 cup of dry white wine (or lemon juice) over fish.
• Add whipping cream or milk and oregano.
• Cover with foil and bake at 425 degrees for about 10 minute.

• Distribute shrimp evenly over the top.
• Bake, uncovered, for another 10 minutes or until top is golden brown, cheese is melted and fish flakes easily.

STEAMED FISH WITH GINGER & SPRING ONION

Steps:

• Fold over foil and seal the 3 edges, then put on a baking sheet. Cook for 20 mins, open the parcel and scatter over the spring onions and coriander. Serve with brown rice and squeezed lime juice.
