Simplest Steamed Fish

Directions

1. 1
   Put at least 1-inch of water in the bottom of a steamer; cover and bring to a boil.
2. 2
   Put the fish in a heat-proof rack or casserole; place in the steamer; cover and steam 4-8 minutes, or until the fish is done.
3. 3
   Check fish often, being careful when removing the lid of the steamer so you don't get scalded.
4. 4
   Stop the cooking as soon as a thin-bladed knife meets no resistance when poking the fillet.
5. 5
   Thicker fillets may need about 10-12 minutes.
6. 6
   Transfer the fish to a warm platter and drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice. Sprinkle with coarse salt and serve.
