– Coat the Fish with oil or bottomed wok with a bamboo net to prevent fish from sticking to the wok. 

– Make sure the chicken broth just amost cover the fish, add more water if the wok or the fish is too big.

– This recipe also works well with frozen fish. This method can get the “freezery” taste out.

– the cooking time might vary subject to the size of the fish.
