Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 15 minutes
Servings: 2

Ingredients

  • 1 walleye fillet, boneless, skinless, sliced thinly on bias
  • 7oz snow peas, trimmed
  • 1 egg white
  • 1 tablespoon Shaoxing cooking wine (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon corn starch
  • 1 tablespoon oil or lard
  • ¼ cup prepared Thai sweet chili sauce
  • 1 lime (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
  • Brown or white rice to serve

Instructions

  • Cook rice to package instructions.
  • Mix together the egg white, Shaoxing wine, and corn starch in a bowl. Toss in the fish and let marinate for 15 minutes.
  • Heat the oil in a wok or skillet over high heat. Add the fish in one layer and cook without moving for 1 minute. Gently (very gently!) flip the fish and cook for another 30 seconds, then transfer to a bowl.
  • Clean and re-oil the wok if necessary. Add the snow peas and cook, tossing constantly, for 1 minute. Add the fish and sweet chili sauce and toss gently (trying not to smush the fish) until everything is sauced.
  • Transfer to plates with rice and squeeze a drizzle of lime juice and sprinkle of sesame seeds over everything. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
