Ingredients

4 servings
Canned coconut milk1 can (14 oz)
Rice2 cups cooked
Zucchini1 medium
Red onion1/2 medium
Saltto taste

Method

1

Rinse rice and begin cooking according to package directions. Mince ginger, juice limes, and chop cilantro. Cut fish into 2-inch pieces and pat dry with paper towels.

2

In a large pot, combine fish stock, coconut milk, ginger, and fish sauce. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.

3

Add lime juice and stir to combine. Season with salt to taste.

4

Heat coconut oil in a sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add sliced red onion and cook for 2 minutes until softened. Add zucchini and sauté for 3–4 minutes until tender-crisp. Transfer to a plate.

5

Gently place fish pieces into the simmering broth. Cook for 6–8 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily. Do not stir vigorously; fish will break apart naturally as it poaches.

6

Divide cooked rice among four bowls. Top each with sautéed vegetables and a generous portion of fish.

7

Ladle hot broth over each bowl. Garnish with cilantro and toasted sesame seeds. Serve with lime wedges on the side.
