Ingredients

1 1/2 lb fish fillets
2 tsp minced garlic or 2 teaspoons minced ginger
3 green onions
1/4 cup cilantro leaf
1 tbsp vegetable oil
3 tbsp rice vinegar
2 tbsp oyster sauce
3 tbsp brandy or 3 tablespoons dry sherry
1/8 tsp sugar
1/4 tsp white pepper
1 1/2 tbsp cornstarch
1 tsp sesame oil
1 1/2 cups medium grain white rice
1 3/4 cups water

Steps

Combine the rice and water in a medium saucepan, bring it to a boil, then cover and simmer for 18 to 20 minutes.
Mix the garlic, green onions, cilantro, vinegar, oyster sauce, brandy, sugar, white pepper, and sesame oil in a bowl.
Coat the fish with half the sauce and let it stand for 15 minutes while the oven heats to 400 F.
Place the fish in a lightly oiled 9-by-13-inch baking dish and bake for 12 to 15 minutes until it flakes easily or reaches 145 F.
Whisk the cornstarch with water, stir it into the remaining sauce, and cook in a small saucepan over medium heat for 3 to 5 minutes until thickened.
Fluff the rice, spoon the thickened sauce over the fish, and serve them together.
