This is a super quick and delicious dish. Special enough to ring in the lunar New Year, it's also perfect for nights when you rush to get dinner on the table.

Sherry (dry or sweet)

¼ cup(s)

Sugar

3 tbsp(s)

Garlic

4 clove(s), large, minced

Uncooked scallions

3 medium, cut into 2-inch pieces

Ginger root

3 piece(s), cut 1/2-inch thick, crushed

Sun-dried hot chile peppers

2 item(s)

Soy sauce

½ cup(s)

Uncooked branzino (sea bass) fillet

Instructions

  1. Place all ingredients except fish into a saucepan. Add 1 1/2 cups of water, or enough to barely cover fish. Bring to a boil, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Add fish, turn down heat and simmer 5 to 7 minutes, or until fish is cooked through.
