Danny Chan's Steamed Salmon with Lemon
- 2 (1-pound) salmon fillets
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon ground white pepper
- 2 scallions, cut into 4-inch pieces
- 4 slices ginger
- 1 lemon
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
- Thoroughly rinse the fish in cold water and pat dry.
- Put the fillets in a 9-inch shallow heatproof bowl.
- Drizzle the soy sauce, salt and pepper over the salmon.
- Sprinkle with the scallions and ginger.
- Cut the lemon in half crosswise.
- Cut half a lemon into 4 slices and put on the fish.
- Juice the remaining lemon and drizzle over the fish.
- Put a 1-inch-high steamer rack in a 14-inch-flatbottomed wok.
- Add water to a depth of 3/4 inch and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Carefully put the bowl on the rack, cover, and steam for 8 to 10 minutes.
- Test the fish for doneness by poking the thickest party with a chopstick or fork; the fish should flake.
- If not, steam 1 to 2 minutes or until the fish just flakes.
- Be sure to check the water level from time to time and replenish if necessary, with boiling water.
- Carefully remove the bowl from the wok.
- Drizzle the sesame oil over the fillets.
