Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 medium bok choy (about 1/4 pound)
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
2 teaspoons Asian sesame oil
1 carrot, scored lengthwise and sliced thin crosswise
a 1 1/2-inch piece peeled fresh gingerroot, cut into fine julienne strips (about 1/4 cup)
2 tablespoons Scotch
2 cups low-salt chicken broth
1 teaspoon sugar
2 scallions, cut into 2-inch julienne strips
2 small (4 to 5 ounces each) red snapper or other white fish fillets with skin
1/2 teaspoon cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
Garnish: fresh coriander sprigs

Steps:

  • Cut leaves from bok choy stalks, keeping leaves and stalks separate. Slice leaves thin and cut stalks diagonally into 1/2-inch-thick slices.
  • In a large heavy saucepan heat 1 teaspoon of each oil together over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and stir-fry bok choy stalks, carrot, and gingerroot 1 minute.
  • Add Scotch, broth, and sugar and simmer, covered, 5 minutes. Add bok choy leaves and scallions and simmer, covered, 3 to 5 minutes, or until tender. Season broth with salt and pepper and keep warm, uncovered.
  • Pat fish dry and rub cornstarch and curry powder into skin of each fish fillet. Halve each fish fillet on the diagonal.
  • In a 9-inch non-stick skillet heat remaining 2 teaspoons oil together over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté fish, skin sides down and pressing flat occasionally with a metal spatula, until golden, about 2 minutes. Turn fish and sauté until just cooked through, about 2 minutes more.
  • Divide broth between 2 bowls and top with fish, skin sides up. Garnish each serving with coriander sprigs.

Not a fan. The fish was dry and the broth was bland. I wouldn't make this again.

The fish was a bit overcooked, but the ginger broth was delicious. I'll try again with a shorter cooking time.

The red snapper was delicious, but the broth was a bit too salty for my taste. Next time I'll use less soy sauce.

Not a fan of the ginger broth. It was a bit too overpowering for the delicate flavor of the red snapper.

This pan-seared red snapper was a hit! The crispy skin and tender, flaky flesh were cooked to perfection. The ginger broth added a delicious depth of flavor.
