Cooking Instructions

    Prepare the Fish

    In a large pot, bring the water to a boil. Add salt and stir until dissolved.

    Cook the Fish

    Carefully add the fish fillets to the boiling water. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for about 8-10 minutes or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

    Make the Spicy Sauce

    In a small bowl, combine minced garlic, red chili flakes, soy sauce, lime juice, sesame oil, and chopped cilantro. Stir well to combine.

    Serve

    Once the fish is cooked, carefully remove it from the pot and place it on a serving plate. Drizzle the spicy sauce over the fish and garnish with additional cilantro if desired.
