Steaming is a very healthy way to cook fish. The method retains ingredients' nutrients, and calories from fat are minimal since there's no need to use oil. Ingredients:
12 ounces orange roughy or 12 ounces other fish fillets |
1 small fresh basil leaf |
1 garlic clove, minced |
2 teaspoons shredded fresh ginger |
1 cup thinly sliced sweet pepper |
8 ounces asparagus spears, trimmed |
Directions:
1. Make bias cuts about 3/4-inch apart into the fish fillets (Do not cut completely through fish).
2. Tuck 1 or 2 whole basil leaves into each cut.
3. Rub fillets with garlic and ginger.
4. Place peppers and asparagus in a steamer basket.
5. Top with fish.
6. Place basket into a large, deep saucepan or wok in which 1-inch of water is boiling. Cover; steam 6 to 8 minutes or until fish just flakes easily when tested with a fork. Makes 2 servings.
