Chinese Marinated Fish Recipes

Steps:

• Turn on broiler in oven or toaster oven.
• Combine the sherry and sesame oil. Grate the ginger, and add.
• Wash and dry fish. Coat it with marinade, until it's time to cook it -- just a few minutes.
• Remove the fish from the marinade, and broil it according to the Canadian rule: measure the fish at its thickest part, and cook it 8 to 10 minutes to the inch. Scrod will take about 5 minutes. Brush once with marinade.

Steps:

• For fish:
• Rinse fish and pat dry. Mix green onions, ginger, 1 tablespoon rice wine, 1 tablespoon oil, and soy sauce in 11x7x2-inch glass baking dish. Add fish and turn to coat. Let marinate 1 hour at room temperature.
• For sauce:
• Bring first 6 ingredients to boil in heavy small saucepan, stirring to dissolve sugar. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until sauce is slightly thickened and reduced to 1/3 cup, about 4 minutes. Remove star anise sauce from heat and cool.
• Remove fish from marinade and place on several layers of paper towels to drain; reserve marinade. Pat fish dry. Heat 14-inch-diameter flat-bottomed wok over high heat until drop of water added to wok evaporates on contact. Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to wok, then fish pieces, spreading evenly. Cover and cook 30 seconds. Uncover and loosen fish pieces with metal spatula. Reduce heat to medium and cook 1 minute. Turn fish pieces over; cook 1 minute. Add remaining 2 tablespoons rice wine and reserved marinade from fish. Cover and cook 1 minute. Remove wok from heat; let fish stand covered until just opaque in center, about 1 minute. Using metal spatula, transfer fish and sauce from wok to plate. Drizzle with some of star anise sauce. Refrigerate until cold. DO AHEAD Can be made 6 hours ahead. Cover fish and keep chilled. Cover remaining star anise sauce and let stand at room temperature.
• Spoon additional star anise sauce over fish; sprinkle with green onions and serve cold or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Whisk ingredients together in a small bowl. Place meat, poultry, fish, or vegetables in zipper lock bag or in shallow, nonreactive pan. Pour marinade over contents and seal or cover. Turn zipper lock bag or stir contents of pan occasionally to evenly distribute marinade.
• Prepare 1/2 cup marinade per pound of meat. See description for suggested use of rosemary.

Steps:

• Combine marinade ingredients in shallow dish.
• Add fish and marinate 2 to 6 hours in the refrigerator.
• Remove from refrigerator and let sit 20 - 30 minutes while grill preheats.
• Place directly over high heat on oiled rack.
• Tuna only; After 5 minutes, baste with marinade and turn.
• Remove from grill when center-read meat thermometer reads 140°F for tuna or when salmon flakes.

Steps:

• Mix together marinade, and mix together cornstarch paste.
• Cut the fish into 1/2-inch slices and put in a bowl with marinade; mix well and set aside.
• Drain and squeeze the mushrooms; remove the stems and slice the caps.
• Cut the red and green peppers into 3/4-inch strips, and then diagonally into lozenge shapes.
• Cut the scallion greens into bite-sized pieces.
• Heat the wok over high heat, then add some peanut oil. When hot, add the fish and stir with chopsticks to separate the slices; when they are white but not fully cooked, remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
• Drain off all but three tablespoons of the oil, and return the wok to the stove top over high heat; add the garlic, ginger, mushrooms and peppers and stir-fry until fragrant; add the fish and season with soy sauce, vinegar and salt to taste; add the stock, and then the cornstarch paste, stirring as it thickens the liquid to a glaze.

• Add the salmon strips and turn gently to coat.
• Refrigerate for a minimum of 30 minutes or up to 6 hours, turning often.
• Steamed Salmon:.
• Remove salmon from marinade and place in a casserole dish that will fit inside your bamboo steamer. (I use a disposible aluminum cake pan that has been slightly modified to allow steam to filter around the sides.).
• Generously brush salmon with your favorite oriental sauce; sprinkle grated ginger on top.
• Cover with bamboo lid and place over boiling water to steam.
• Steam for 10-12 minutes; or until fish flakes with a fork.
• Serve over rice with lemon/lime wedge.
