Description

Delightful crispy pan-fried fish fillets served with a tangy ginger scallion sauce, perfect for dinner.


Ingredients

  • 4 fish fillets (cod or tilapia)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 inch fresh ginger, thinly sliced
  • 4 scallions, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar


Instructions

  1. Season the fish fillets with salt and pepper on both sides.
  2. Heat olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat.
  3. Place the fillets in the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until crispy and cooked through.
  4. In a separate small pan, heat sesame oil over low heat and add ginger. Sauté for about 1 minute.
  5. Add the chopped scallions and soy sauce to the ginger, cooking for another minute.
  6. Stir in rice vinegar, then remove from heat.

Notes

Pat the fish fillets dry before seasoning for a better sear. Avoid overcrowding the pan for optimal crispiness.
