Ingredients:
- 1 - scallion thinly sliced
- 1/4 cups - coarsely chopped cilantro, plus small sprigs for garnish
- 1/4 cups - fresh lime juice
- 3 tablespoons - reduced-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons - unseasoned rice vinegar
- 2 teaspoons - finely minced peeled giner
- 3 1/2 tablespoons - vegetable oil, divided
- - kosher salt
- - freshly group black pepper
- 1 pounds - baby bok choy (2-3 bunches) cut in half lengthwise
- 1/2 cups - sake or dry white wine
- 4 - 4-oz filets flounder or other delicate white fish (up to 1/2" thick)
Directions:
Arrange a rack in upper third of oven; preheat to 400°. Combine scallion, 1/4 cup cilantro, and next 4 ingredients in a small bowl. Whisk in 1 1/2 tablespoon oil. Season cilantro-lime sauce with salt and pepper; set aside.
Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over high heat until shimmering. Working in batches if needed, add bok choy, cut side down, and sear until golden brown, 2-4 minutes per batch. Turn bok choy cut side up and remove pan from heat. Add sake. Season flounder fillets with salt and pepper and arrange in a single layer over bok choy. Roast in oven until fish is just cooked through, 8-10 minutes.
Spoon sake sauce from skillet into the bottom of 4 shallow bowls, dividing evenly. Add bok choy to each bowl, dividing evenly; top each bowl with 1 fish fillet. Spoon some cilantro-lime sauce over fish and garnish with cilantro sprigs. Serve remaining cilantro-lime sauce alongside for drizzling.
