Simplest Steamed Fish - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 1/2 1 1/2 lbs sea bass or 1 1/2 lbs halibut
    2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
    1/2 lemon, juice of
    coarse salt
Preparation
    Put at least 1-inch of water in the bottom of a steamer; cover and bring to a boil.
    Put the fish in a heat-proof rack or casserole; place in the steamer; cover and steam 4-8 minutes, or until the fish is done.
    Check fish often, being careful when removing the lid of the steamer so you don't get scalded.
    Stop the cooking as soon as a thin-bladed knife meets no resistance when poking the fillet.
    Thicker fillets may need about 10-12 minutes.
    Transfer the fish to a warm platter and drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice. Sprinkle with coarse salt and serve.
