Rice Wine-Steeped Fish image

This is a very good and easy fish recipe. You can use just about any firm fleshed white fish but my favorite is orange roughy. This recipe is from Ken Hom's Quick and Easy Chinese Cooking. Cook time includes 5 minutes standing time.

This was my first time cooking fish in rice wine and it turned out great! The fish was moist and flavorful, and the sauce was rich and complex.
