Ingredients

skinless lemon sole fillets 2
stem ginger in syrup 1 ball, plus 1 tbsp syrup from the jar
red chilli 1, sliced
garlic 4 cloves, crushed
soy sauce 1 tbsp
vegetable oil
pak choy or other Chinese greens 300g, cleaned and sliced if large cooked rice to serve (optional)

Method

Step 1

Put the lemon sole on a baking tray. Mix the ginger plus syrup, chilli, half the garlic and soy in a small bowl. Spoon over the fish. Put under a hot grill for around 4-5 minutes, depending on thickness of fillets, or until cooked through.
Step 2

Meanwhile, heat 2 tsp of oil in a wok. Tip in remaining the garlic and soften for 10 seconds before adding the pak choi or greens. Cook for 3-4 minutes, until just wilted and tender. Pile the greens on a plate alongside fish and drizzle with the gingery juices. Serve with a small bowl of cooked rice, if you like.
