HCG Approved Recipes: Chinese Steamed Fish


Ingredients
400 grams red snapper fillets
1/2 tsp. salt

1/2 tsp. ground black pepper

1 T. grated fresh ginger

1 tsp. low sodium soy sauce
 1 tomato, quartered
1/2 fresh red chile pepper, seeded and chopped

2 sprigs cilantro, finely chopped

Directions
Bring about 1 1/2 inches of water to boil in a steamer fitted with a basket large enough for the snapper to lie flat. Season snapper with salt and pepper, and place in the steamer basket.  Top fish with ginger, and drizzle with soy sauce. Place shiitake mushrooms, tomato, and red chile pepper in the steamer basket.Steam fish 15 minutes, or until easily flaked with a fork. Sprinkle with cilantro.  Soy sauce is almost pure salt so do not exceed recipe instructions.  While on the hCG Diet salt causes weight retention.
