3 tbs reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 tbs oriental (dark) sesame oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 lg carrot, cut into very thin matchsticks
4 scallions, coarsely chopped
1/2″ piece of fresh ginger, cut into thin slivers
1 1/2 lbs cod, red snapper, OR sea bass fillets
1/4 lb snow peas
1/4 cup chopped cilantro (optional)
preheat the oven to 400 degrees. line a shallow baking pan large enough to hold the fish in one layer with foil.
in a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, red pepper flakes, and black pepper.
scatter half the carrot, scallions, and ginger over the bottom of the prepared baking pan. place the fish fillets, on one layer, on top.
scatter the snow peas and the remaining carrots, scallions, and ginger on top of the fish. drizzle the soy sauce mixture evenly over everything.
cover tightly with foil and bake until the fish is opaque throughout and just flakes when tested with a fork, 15-20 minutes.
serve the fish with some of the vegetables, and a sprinkling of cilantro, if desired.
