Steps:
- Prepare your steamer. I set up a steamer rack in a large skillet on the stove with about an inch of water.
- Place tilapia filets on a plate that will fit in your steamer.
- Pour soy sauce over fish. Sprinkle ginger, garlic, and green onion over the fish as well.
- Carefully place the plate of fish into your steamer. Cover with a lid and steam for 15 minutes or until fish is cooked through. Serve right away.
STEAMED WHOLE TILAPIA
This is a recipe that appeared on a card at my local ShopRite, and the card states it comes from a magazine named Simply Seafood. It works best with an Asian bamboo steamer or equivalent. The card states the recipe is also delicious with trout, rockfish, and small striped bass. I haven't tried these fishes in this dish. According to the recipe, a whole tilapia is prepared, but filets can definitely be adapted!

Steps:
- Scale and gut the tilapia (or have your fishmonger do this).
- Make 3 or 4 shallow slashes on each side of the fish, to absorb the marinate.
- Mix soy sauce, ginger, sesame oil, garlic and peppers. Rub a small portion of this sauce into the fish, including into the slashes.
- Add shredded cabbage and scallion to the remainder of the sauce, and mix.
- Layer cabbage onto a heat-resistant plate which will fit into your steamer, and place the fish atop the cabbage. Put the plate into the top portion of the steamer.
- In the bottom of the steamer, pour three inches of water. Set steamer over range on high, and allow water to boil. When the water is at boiling, put the steamer basket over the lower portion, and cover.
- Steam fish until it has just turned opaque, approximately 15-20 minutes.
- Serve, and sprinkle sesame seeds atop.

STEAMED TILAPIA IN WINE SAUCE
I developed this recipe while working at a local winery. Fast and easy to prepare, it became an instant classic at my house. I use a lively dry pear wine in the sauce and recommend avoiding those that are sweet or semi-sweet. -Tenneille Brewer, Fayette, New York

Steps:
- Sprinkle fillets with 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Place each fillet on 1 side of a piece of heavy-duty foil (about 18x12-in. rectangle). Top with peas, chives and butter. Drizzle with wine; sprinkle with the remaining salt and pepper. Fold foil around fish and peas, sealing tightly., Grill, covered, over medium heat 10-15 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Open foil carefully to allow steam to escape. Spoon juices over fish and peas. If desired, top with additional minced chives. Serve with rice.
