Preparation Time: 35
Minutes
Ingredients:
1 tsp honey
1 tsp peanut oil
1 sm chili
hot seeded and finely sliced
1 tsp grated
ginger root
1 tsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp sesame oil
1 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
1 kg snapper -- (2 lb)
2 spring onions
cut into 2.5 cm (1 in) pieces
Directions:
Ask your fishmonger to
gut and scale the fresh fish you select. Fish
belonging to the snapper family is always delicious
prepared this way.
In a small bowl thoroughly mix honey, peanut oil,
chili,
ginger, lemon juice, sesame oil and soy sauce.
Rinse the inside of the fish and pat it dry using a
clean towel. Make five or six shallow crosscuts
about 1 cm (1/3 in) deep on both sides of the fish.
This helps it to cook evenly.
Preheat oven to
400°F-200°F
Brush fish all over with marinade. Place fish in a
greased oven dish and cook in preheated oven for
about 20 minutes. Cover fish tail with a small piece
of foil during the cooking if it starts browning too
much.
Carefully transfer fish with any pan juices to a
serving dish and sprinkle with spring onion.
