Steamed Fish with Fresh Cilantro Sauce

Instructions

1. Rinse the fish fillets lightly under cold water and drain thoroughly in a colander. Place them in a bowl. Stir together the ingredients of the ginger marinade, pour it over the fillets, and toss lightly to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let the fillets marinate in the refrigerator for 10 minutes.
2. Arrange the fillets, skin side down, on a heatproof plate and place in a steamer tray or on a rack over an empty tuna fish can. Pour enough water for steaming into a wok or pot and steam until the fish flakes when prodded with a knife, about 6 or 7 minutes for flounder or sole, 10 to 12 minutes for pickerel or lake trout. (Alternatively, you may grill the fish or sear it in a hot nonstick pan brushed lightly with oil. Cook for prescribed cooking time.)
3. While the fish is steaming, in a saucepan, add all of the ingredients for the cilantro sauce and then heat until boiling. Stir and turn off the heat. Pour the heated sauce over the steamed fillets and serve immediately with steamed brown rice and a vegetable.
