Instructions

  1. 1

    Scale and gut the gizzard shad, rinse well under running water, and pat completely dry.

  2. 2

    Score both sides lightly, season evenly with coarse salt, and let rest for 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Finely mince the ginger, slice the chili, and mix with soy sauce and vinegar to make a ginger soy dip.

  4. 4

    Brush a hot pan or grill lightly with oil, then cook the fish over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes per side.

  5. 5

    When the skin is crisp and the flesh is cooked through, remove and rest for 1 minute.

  6. 6

    Serve with lemon wedges and enjoy immediately with the ginger soy dipping sauce.

Tips

Dry the fish thoroughly to prevent sticking and get crisp skin.
A short salting rest reduces fishiness and enhances umami.
If using an oven, bake at 220C for 10-12 minutes and finish with 1 minute of broil.
