About

NOTE: Halibut Cod, Sea Bass, Tilapia, or Bay Scallops may be substituted for Rockfish.

One of the keys to making good steamed fish it avoid over cooking it. Even though it's being cooked with water vapor, overcooked fish will be dry and even gets a "fishy" flavor. Check the fish and it's done when slightly firm and just starts to come part in flakes.
