Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Fish

    Rinse the yellowtail fish fillets under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Cut them into bite-sized pieces and set aside.

  2. 2

    Chop the Scallions

    Wash the scallions thoroughly. Chop the white and green parts separately and set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, and grated ginger to create the marinade.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Marinate the Fish

    Place the yellowtail pieces in a bowl and pour the marinade over them. Ensure all pieces are well-coated. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 5

    Cook the Fish

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated yellowtail pieces, cooking for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until the fish is cooked through and flaky.

  3. 6

    Add Scallions

    In the last minute of cooking, sprinkle the chopped white parts of the scallions over the fish. Stir gently to combine.

Serving
