Ingredients List
- Flathead fillets – approx. 600g (skinless)
- ½ tsp dried chilli flakes (plus extra for garnish)
- ½ tsp five spice powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tbsp rice bran oil or sunflower oil (for cooking)
- 1 bunch broccoli, cut into florets
- 1 bunch asparagus, cut into 3cm pieces
- 1 red capsicum, thinly sliced
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp Chinese rice wine (or dry sherry)
Steps
- In a bowl, toss the skinless flathead fillets with 1/2 teaspoon each of dried chilli flakes and five spice powder. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Heat the rice bran or sunflower oil in a wok over medium heat. In two batches, cook the fish fillets for 2 minutes on each side, or until cooked through. Transfer to a plate and cover tightly with foil to keep warm.
- Increase the heat to high and stir-fry the broccoli, asparagus, and red capsicum for 1 minute. Add the soy sauce, Chinese rice wine (or dry sherry), and the remaining chilli flakes and five spice. Stir-fry for an additional 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are just tender.
- Divide the stir-fried vegetables among four plates and top each with the cooked fish fillets.
