Steamed Fish Head with Chopped Chili

This steamed fish head recipe is a flavorful and aromatic dish that’s both tender and packed with bold tastes. Fresh fish head is cleaned and marinated with cooking wine and salt, then steamed with scallions, ginger, garlic, and spicy diced peppers for a fragrant kick. The high-heat steaming locks in moisture, ensuring the fish stays succulent. After discarding the steamed water, fresh ginger and scallions are added, along with rich steamed fish bean paste for a savory depth. A final sizzle of smoking-hot oil poured over the fish enhances the aromas and ties all the flavors together. Perfectly balanced between spicy, umami, and fresh, this dish is a showstopper for any meal. Quick to prepare yet restaurant-quality, it’s a must-try for seafood lovers!
