Ingredients

Check you have the quantities below.

  • 800 g fish steaks or whole small fish
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 shallots, minced
  • 4 tablespoons sweet soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon chili paste
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Let’s make it

  1. Mix garlic, shallots, sweet soy sauce, lime juice, chili paste, salt, and oil to make a marinade.
  2. Coat the fish and rest 15 minutes while you heat a grill, grill pan, or oven broiler.
  3. Grill over medium heat, turning once, until the fish is opaque and reaches 63 C/145 F, about 12 to 15 minutes.
  4. Serve with extra lime and warm rice.

Use fish steaks or fillets for easier serving and fewer bones.

Cooking time varies with equipment and batch size. Follow school allergy rules for children’s meals; keep perishable lunches cold.
