I love steamed fish. It's easy to cook, healthy, yummy. What's not to love? Unless you don't like fish.



The ingredients:


Score both sides of the fish with diagonal cuts about 1 inch apart:

Rub the ingredients all over the fish except for the green onion

Steam for 12 to 15 minutes then enjoy with rice
