This recipe for Soy Ginger Steamed Pompano Fish is a perfect example of a healthy, light dish that is still satisfying and delicious. Plus, it’s super simple to make with virtually no fuss while leaving it in a steamer. Pompano Fish is a flat fish with silver skin, much like Mackerel. It’s white, flaky meat is perfect for steaming, and is not a bony fish. It’s bones are larger than a Tilapia’s and makes it easier to eat when whole. Using a rice cooker as a steamer is a perfect way to make a kitchen appliance do dual duty and I used mine to steam, as well as make the rice for this meal!
