Found in America's Test Kitchen the Best Simple Recipes. It sounds delicious and so far several recipes I have made are quite good. Simple and easy. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons black bean garlic sauce |
1 tablespoon rice vinegar |
1 teaspoon cornstarch |
1/4 cup cornstarch |
1/2 cup water |
4 skinless halibut fillets, 1-inch thick (6 oz. each) |
2 tablespoons vegetable oil |
fresh ginger, peeled and cut into thin strips (2-inch piece) |
4 scallions, white parts minced, green parts sliced thin |
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro |
Directions:
1. Whisk together black bean and garlic sauce, vinegar, 1 teaspoon cornstarch, and water in a bowl. Pat fish dry with paper towels. Place remaining cornstarch in shallow dish. Coat fish with cornstarch, shaking to remove excess.
2. Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until just smoking. Add fish and cook until browned and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a platter.
3. Add ginger and scallion whites to empty skillet and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add black bean mixture and simmer until slightly thickened, about 1 minute. Pour sauce over fish and sprinkle with scallion greens and cilantro. Serve.
