How to Make Quick Steamed Red Snapper Seafood
- Whisk together 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon sugar, 1 tablespoon grated ginger, 1 clove minced garlic, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. This is your delicious soy-ginger marinade.
- If using a microwave-safe steamer, place the red snapper fillets on the steamer rack. If using a stovetop method, place the fish on a heat-safe rack or vegetable steamer basket set inside a skillet with about 1 inch of boiling water.
- Brush the red snapper fillets generously with the soy-ginger mixture.
- For microwave steaming: Cover the steamer and microwave on high for 8-10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. For stovetop steaming: Cover the skillet tightly with a lid and steam for 10-12 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- During the last few minutes of steaming, occasionally brush the fish with remaining soy-ginger mixture for extra flavor and glaze.
- Carefully remove the cooked red snapper from the steamer and serve immediately. Garnish with extra ginger or green onions, if desired.
