Ingredients

  • 1/2 tsp. of sea salt
  • 1 tsp. of coarsely ground black pepper
  • 4 snapper fillets, about 7 oz. (200g) each
  • 1 tsp. of sesame oil
  • 1 large brown onion (7 oz.), cut into thin wedges
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • 1 piece (1/2-inch) fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 Tbsp. of salted black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 medium green capsicum (7 oz.), coarsely chopped
  • 1 medium red capsicum (7 oz.), coarsely chopped
  • 6 green onions, sliced thickly
  • 3.5 oz. of snow peas
  • 3.5 oz. of broccolini, coarsely chopped
  • 1/2 cup of water
  • 1/4 cup of oyster sauce
  • 2 Tbsp. of lemon juice
  • 1 lb. of baby buk choy, coarsely chopped
  • 3 oz. of bean sprouts

Preparation:

  • In small-size bowl, combine salt and pepper, then rub into skin side of each fillet.
  • Cook fish, skin-side down, on heated lightly oiled grill plate (or grill or barbecue) until browned and crisp, turn, cook until browned and cooked as desired. Cover to keep warm.
  • Heat oil in frying pan and stir-fry brown onion, garlic and ginger until onion softens.
  • Add beans and stir-fry about 1 min.
  • Add capsicums, green onion, snow peas and broccolini, stir-fry until vegetables are just tender.
  • Stir in water, sauce and juice, cook, stirring until mixture thickens slightly.
  • Add buk choy and sprouts, stir-fry until heated through.
  • Serve fish on vegetables.
  • Tips : Broccolini, a cross between broccoli and Chinese kale, is milder and sweeter than broccoli. Each long stem is topped by a loose floret that closely resembles broccoli; from floret to stem, broccolini is completely edible. Substitute gai lan (chinese broccoli) for the broccolini in this recipe, if you prefer.
