Roast/Steam
Asian-Style Steamed
Snapper with Soy Glaze
This fish is quick, healthy and easy. Thanks to the flexibility of this little oven, we can steam and roast at the same time – just be sure the top element is on and you can get
a nice texture and color to the fish. If you prefer to just steam it without browning a bit, turn the top element off – the choice is yours!
Makes 2 servings
¾cup chicken broth, reduced sodium
¼ cup soy sauce, reduced sodium
pinch dried red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon light brown sugar
2 scallions, sliced, divided
2 red snapper fillets (about 4 to 6 ounces each),
pinch sea or kosher salt
pinch freshly ground black pepper nonstick cooking spray
½ to 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro, for garnish
1.Put the broth, soy sauce, ginger, pepper flakes, sugar and 1 sliced scallion into the baking pan fitted into the Cuisinart® Oven Central™ with both the top and lower elements on to 400ºF.
2.While the broth is heating, season the snapper with the salt and pepper. Lightly coat the rack with nonstick cooking spray.
3.Once the liquid has come to a boil, carefully open the unit and place the rack inside of the pan, with the spokes facing down. Put the seasoned fish on top of the rack and close the unit.
4.Let fish cook until firm to the touch, about 8 to 10 minutes depending on the size of the fish. Carefully remove the rack and fish and set aside.
