Ingredients

For the Fish
  • 1 pound mild white fish (such as flounder, cod, or mahi mahi)
  • 1/2 cup whole-wheat flour I used a gluten-free 1:1 substitute for this crowd
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil
For the Sauce
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon ginger freshly grated
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce I used gluten-free tamari
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
Optional garnish
  • green onions sliced

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Cut the fish into 1-inch chunks and coat all sides with the flour.
  2. Melt the coconut oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook the fish on both sides until it's golden brown and cooked (white and flaky) all the way through, about 5 - 6 minutes. If you chose seafood that's on the thinner side, it will not take as long to cook.
  3. Transfer the fish to a clean plate and add the garlic, ginger, and red pepper to the same pan. Cook for 1 minute while scraping up the brown bits off the bottom of the pan and stirring. (I found that the gluten-free flour stuck a little more than normal during this step - be careful not to let it burn!)
  4. Pour in the water, soy sauce, honey, and vinegar and cook while stirring occasionally until it thickens, 2 - 3 minutes. Add the fish back into the pan to coat, garnish with green onions if desired, and serve.

Notes

  • Gluten-free when using gluten-free soy sauce and gluten-free flour as I did. 2. We recommend organic ingredients when feasible.
