Decided to try & recreate the kind of dish I used to make in large quantities back in days of yore-here be proof.
Chunk of Halibut-thawed
Soy based Marinade -Soy sauce, water, grated Ginger, grated Garlic, Sesame Oil, Lemon juice, Ghanaian Chile powder, generous shots of Liquid Smoke
Thai Sweet Chile sauce marinade-TSCS, water, grated Ginger, Lime Juice, Peanut Butter, Black Pepper
Halibut chunks marinating-more about this later
Far too many veggies-note Potato is precooked
Assembled and ready to cook!
Thoroughly cooked-but not broiled
Cooling/perfuming the neighbourhoodAs with all cooking this was a qualified success-not quite the dazzling dish of days gone by but I think my standards are higher now and I was sober when I ate.
The fish was marinated just a tad too long-one hour-when 20 minutes would have been lots; the Soy marinade can give the fish a bit of a leathery texture just the outside mind and the Lime in the TSCS had started to cook the protein in the fish a la Ceviche.
Strongest flavour was the Soy/Garlic I can see it appealing to people who had been drinking the TSCS though had a
'moreish' appeal some nebulous combination of ingredients really worked well.
In the beginning I was just going to do Fish & Onions and that would have been fine finding too much info online meant a loss of focus OTOH there are lots of tasty leftovers.
