Ingredients

2 Whole fish (about 2 pounds each, such as black sea bass or wild salmon), scaled, gutted and scored

1/2 cup Sliced scallions (green part only)

2 tablespoons Fresh julienned ginger

1/2 cup Soy sauce

1/4 cup Peanut oil

1 teaspoon Sesame oil

1/2 teaspoon Sugar

Preparation

Position oven racks in upper and lower thirds of oven. Heat oven to 450°. Place a long piece of aluminum foil on a large, shallow baking sheet (foil should be longer than sheet); repeat with another baking sheet; place 1 whole fish on each sheet. Season each fish on both sides with salt and pepper. Whisk remaining ingredients in a bowl; spoon over each fish. Seal foil loosely around each fish to create a somewhat roomy pocket. Bake 10 minutes per inch of thickness of fish at its thickest part (typically 20 to 25 minutes for a 2-inch-thick fish). Remove foil and serve with juices.
