Ingredients
-
2 (8 ounce) fillets swai fish
-
2 teaspoons ground black pepper, or to taste
-
1 teaspoon curry powder
-
2 tablespoons soy sauce
-
1 tablespoon olive oil
-
1 (1 1/2 inch) piece fresh ginger, grated
-
2 cloves garlic, crushed, or more to taste
-
1 cup orange juice
-
1 tablespoon sambal oelek
Directions
-
Lay fish in a glass dish; season both sides with black pepper and curry powder. Pour soy sauce on top, making sure to coat both sides. Marinate for at least 20 minutes.
-
Heat olive oil in a sauce pan on medium-high heat. Place fish in hot oil and cook until browned, about 3 minutes per side. Add ginger and ginger into the open spaces of the pan; cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir frequently to prevent burning.
-
Reduce heat to medium-low. Pour any remaining marinade into the pan, along with the orange juice.
-
Cook until fish flakes easily, about 10 minutes. Remove fish from the pan and set aside. Stir sambal oelek into the pan. Cook sauce until reduced and thickened, about 5 minutes. Pour over fish and serve.
Cook's Notes:
This recipe has a pungent, spicy sauce. If you like it milder, reduce the amount of pepper, garlic, ginger, and chili. All of the spice amounts are approximate and I always adjust them depending on whom I'm cooking for.
You can substitute any white fish for swai/pangasius.
You can substitute fresh chilies or 1 teaspoon red chili pepper flakes for sambal oelek.
You can use any oil of your choice in place of olive oil.
