Simplest Steamed Fish

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.
