Steamed Wild Halibut

Ingredients

• 2 portions Vital Choice halibut (4 to 6 ounces), thawed and patted dry
• Vital Choice extra virgin olive oil, for wiping on steamer insert
• Vital Choice ikura (salmon roe/caviar), for garnish

• 4 cups spinach
• 1 cup water
• 1 cup sake
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil

Instructions

1. Lightly oil a steamer insert. Put water, sake, soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar and ginger in the bottom of a steamer pot.
2. Lay the spinach down on the insert, topped with carrots. Lay the halibut on top of the carrots.
3. Bring the steaming liquid to a boil. Put the fish and vegetables over the boiling liquid. Put the lid on and steam on high heat for 5 minutes, or until the halibut just starts to flake when pressed firmly with your finger.
