Halibut with Rice Wine

Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
• 1 shallots, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon black bean sauce
• 1/2 cup mirin (Japanese sweet wine)
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce

• 6 (4 ounce) fillets halibut, skin removed
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Directions

1. Heat oil in non-stick saucepan over medium heat. Cook shallots and garlic gently until fragrant, but not brown. Stir in black bean sauce, rice wine, and soy sauce. Bring to boil and cook until reduced by half. Remove from heat, and stir in vinegar; set aside.
