How to Make Fish With Shiitakes

  1. Preheat oven to 175°F (80°C).
  2. In a wok or large skillet, bring 1 cup of chicken stock to a simmer over medium heat.
  3. Cut fish fillets into 3-inch square pieces. Add fish to the simmering stock and cook until just cooked through, about 5 minutes. Do not overcook.
  4. Carefully transfer the cooked fish to a heatproof platter. Cover loosely with foil and place in the preheated oven to keep warm.
  5. Strain the remaining stock through a fine-mesh sieve and reserve. Wipe the wok or skillet clean.
  6. Heat 1 tablespoon of peanut oil in the wok or skillet over medium heat.
  7. Add 2 minced cloves of garlic, 1 tablespoon of minced ginger, and 2 chopped scallions. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
  8. Add 8 ounces of shiitake mushrooms, sliced, and sauté until wilted, about 3-5 minutes.
  9. Stir in 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of rice vinegar, and 1 teaspoon of fish sauce.
  10. Cook for 30 seconds. Pour in the reserved chicken stock.
  11. Bring to a simmer.
  12. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon of cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of cold water until smooth. Add to the simmering sauce and stir constantly until thickened.
  13. Stir in 1 teaspoon of sesame oil.
  14. Transfer the fish to a serving dish. Spoon the mushroom sauce generously over the fish. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve immediately.
