Bangus Steak Recipe
Bangus Steak is a pan-fried Filipino milkfish dish cooked in a tangy and savory sauce made from vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, onion, and other seasonings.
Ingredients
- 1 Boneless Bangus (Milkfish), divide into 6 pieces
- ⅓ Cup soy sauce
- 2 Tablespoons vinegar
- 2 Tablespoon oyster sauce
- ½ Cup water
- 1 Tablespoon brown sugar
- 4 Cloves garlic, chopped
- 1 Medium Red Onion, cut into ring shape
- ½ Cup Vegetable oil (For frying)
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (for sauteing)
Instructions
- Pour vegetable oil in the frying pan.
- Once the oil is hot, add each piece of bangus to the pan. Fry on each side till it turns golden brown. Transfer to the plate with a paper towel below. Set it aside.
- Combine soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar and oyster sauce on a small plate bowl. Set it aside.
- Add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a new pas.
- Add chopped garlic followed by cut onion rings (Leave 4-5 onion for garnish). Saute till it turns translucent.
- Add the sauce mixture on the pan followed by water. Stir to combine.
- Place the fried bangus on the pan. Let it simmer for 5-10 minutes to let the milkfish absorb the flavor.
- Once done, transfer them to the plate and place the remaining cut onion ring that wasn't sautéed above the bangus as a form of garnish.
- Serve it with white steamed rice and vegetable salad. Enjoy!
Notes
- Make sure you dry the bangus before placing it in the frying pan to prevent splashing oil.
- Use deboned or boneless bangus, and if you can't find one, you can ask the fishmonger to remove it for you.
- Use flour if you want to make your bangus crispy
