Pre-sauteed some green beans, carrots and onions with some fresh chilli and minced garlic, then reserved. Chucked the fish straight in with a little oil until it got a good browning on one side, then added some lime juice & zest, some white wine, a little more garlic and a lug of sweet chilli sauce. tossed that all around a bit and then threw back in the veggies to get it all mixed up and hot. We tried to keep each of the accompaniments toned down a little more than usual to let the fish shine through - worked very nicely!
Delicious and easy, but at $38/kg when not on special it's not something I'd cook often - I need to find a cheap source of good fish that doesn't require getting up at the crack of dawn to go to the fish markets!
I've been meaning to go to the fish markets for ages but I never manage to actually arrange it and get up early etc. I want to see if they have stingray - BBQ chilli stingray is one of my favourite things I had in Singapore and Malaysia and not exactly easy to get here. But I have a very tasty recipe for marinaded snapper in a book at home that I think would work well...just need the stingray. So if you ever are going to bother to go to the fish markets, let me know and I'll come along. Going with other people means I might actually do it. :P
