Cooking Light. I'll make this with tilapia. Ingredients:
3 cups orange juice |
1/3 cup lime juice |
1 tablespoon ground ginger |
4 (4 ounce) boned skinned halibut fillets |
1 tablespoon cornstarch |
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger |
salt |
cayenne |
asian chili oil (optional) |
thin shreds lime peel (green part only) |
Directions:
1. In the bottom of an 11- to 12-inch-wide steamer or in a deep 5- to 6-quart pan, combine orange juice, lime juice, and ground ginger.
2. set a nonstick or oiled rack at least 1 inch above surface of juice (elevate, if necessary, on the rim of a cheesecake pan or three clean, empty 2- to 3-in.-tall cans with both ends removed).
3. Cover pan and bring juice to a boil over high heat.
4. Rinse fish. Set pieces slightly apart on rack over boiling juice; cover pan and reduce heat to medium. Steam until fish is barely opaque but still moist-looking in center of thickest part (cut to test), 8 to 10 minutes. Lift out rack.
5. With a wide spatula, lift fish from rack and set on a warm plate; cover to keep warm. Increase heat to high and boil pan juices, uncovered, until reduced to about 1 1/2 cups, 10 to 12 minutes.
6. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with 3 tablespoons water. Add mixture, along with fresh ginger, to reduced pan juices; stir until boiling. Add salt and cayenne to taste.
7. Divide sauce evenly among four dinner plates. Lay a piece of fish in sauce on each plate. Garnish each portion with a few drops of chili oil and shreds of lime peel.
