Ingredients

4 tilapia fillets
2 lemons, sliced
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon grated ginger
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon cornstarch
2 green onions, sliced

Instructions

Place the tilapia fillets on a steamer rack or in a steamer basket. Arrange the lemon slices on top of the fillets.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, grated ginger, minced garlic, and cornstarch. Pour the sauce over the fish and lemon slices.
Fill a pot or wok with water and bring it to a boil. Place the steamer rack or basket in the pot, making sure the water doesn’t touch the fish. Cover and steam for 10-15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
While the fish is steaming, bring the remaining sauce to a boil in a small saucepan. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce thickens.
Carefully remove the steamed fish from the pot and transfer to a serving plate. Drizzle with the teriyaki sauce and sprinkle with sliced green onions.
Serve the tilapia with steamed rice and your favorite vegetable for a complete meal.
