Sesame-Crusted Sole with Baby Bok Choy and Wild Rice
Ingredients
Serves 2
Wild Rice
1/4 cup uncooked wild rice
Pinch of sea salt
3/4 cups water
Sole
1/4 cup sesame seeds
2 (4-oz) skinless sole fillets
2 tbsp sesame oil
2 heads baby bok choy, trimmed
2 garlic cloves, minced
1-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and grated
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions
Make the wild rice: Put the wild rice, salt and water in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 50 to 55 minutes.
Make the sole: Place the sesame seeds on a plate. Lightly rub the sole with 1 tablespoon of the sesame oil. Press the sole onto the sesame seeds to form a crust.
Set aside.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon sesame oil and swirl it around the skillet to distribute evenly. Carefully lay the sole in the skillet.
Cook the fish until golden brown, approximately 2 to 3 minutes, leaving it undisturbed to ensure a crunchy crust. Using a fish spatula, turn the sole over and brown the other side for 2 to 3 minutes.
The fish should flake apart with gentle pressure when done. Remove the sole from the pan and set on a plate.
Add the bok choy, garlic and ginger to the skillet. Toss well, until the bok choy begins to wilt. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.
Place the bok choy and steamed wild rice on plates and serve the fish on top. Any leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 4 days.

The 8 Germiest places in your kitchen,
1. Fridge produce drawer;
What They Found: Salmonella, Listeria, yeast and mold...
How to Clean It Properly: Remove drawers, if possible. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and wash the bin with a mild detergent mixed with warm water. Rinse with tap water and wipe dry with a clean towel. To help control odors, use warm water mixed with a baking-soda solution (about 1 to 2 tablespoons of baking soda to 1 quart of water). Rinse and wipe dry, and try to clean monthly.
To avoid cross contamination, separate washed produce from the unwashed and keep it on the top shelf above meats and seafood to avoid raw juices dripping onto it. Keep produce separate in your grocery cart, during food prep, and when using kitchen tools, too.
2. Meat Compartment
What They Found: Salmonella, E.coli, yeast and mold...
How to Clean It Properly: Remove the compartment or drawer, if possible. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and wash the bin with a mild detergent mixed with warm water. Rinse with tap water and wipe dry with a clean towel. To help control odors, use warm water mixed with a baking-soda solution (about 1 to 2 tablespoons of baking soda to 1 quart of water). Rinse and wipe dry.
Clean monthly and whenever you see any spilled meat juices. Store meat and seafood on a separate shelf below produce to avoid contamination from dripping juices.
3. Blender Basket
What They Found: Salmonella, E.coli, yeast and mold...
How to Clean It Properly: Unplug the blender and remove the blender jar from the base. Completely disassemble the jar, removing the blade and gasket at the bottom. If it’s dishwasher safe, place all pieces in the dishwasher after each use. If hand washing, wash the gasket, blade, jar and lid thoroughly in hot soapy water; rinse and dry before re-assembling. Perform this cleaning procedure after each use.
4. Can Opener
What They Found: Salmonella, E.coli, yeast and mold...
How to Clean It Properly: If it’s dishwasher-safe, place the can opener in the dishwasher after each use. If hand washing, wash the opener in hot soapy water, rinsing thoroughly with clean tap water before air drying after each use. Pay special attention to the area around the cutting blades to be sure all food residue is removed.
5. Rubber Spatula
What They Found: E.coli, yeast and mold...
How to Clean It Properly: For two-piece spatulas, separate the handle from the spatula portion and, if dishwasher-safe, place both sections in the dishwasher after each use. If hand washing, wash in hot soapy water, rinsing thoroughly with clean water. For one-piece spatulas, toss in the dishwasher or hand wash thoroughly in hot soapy water, paying special attention to the area where the handle joins the spatula. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
6. Knife Block
What They Found: Yeast and mold...
How to Clean It Properly: First remove any knives stored in the block. Turn the knife block upside down and shake lightly or use a can of compressed air to remove crumbs and other loose debris. Hand wash the knife block in hot soapy water, using a small brush (like a baby bottle nipple brush) to scrub out the knife slots. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
To sanitize, prepare a mixture of 1 gallon lukewarm tap water with 1 tablespoon of 5.25% household bleach. Either immerse the complete block in the water/bleach mixture or fill the knife slots. Allow the bleach/water mixture to sit in contact with the slots for one minute. Rinse the block and knife slots thoroughly with clean tap water and place the block upside down on a clean surface to dry.
To avoid mold and bacterial buildup, wash knives thoroughly after each use and let them dry completely before placing them in the knife block.
Wash and sanitize the knife block monthly if used frequently.
7. Sealed Containers;
What They Found: Salmonella, yeast and mold...
How to Clean It Properly: If dishwasher safe, place both the container and the lid in the dishwasher and wash after each use. If hand washing, wash both the container and lid in hot soapy water, paying special attention to the area around the seal as well as any grooves where the cover attaches to the container. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry.
8. Water Dispenser;
What They Found: Yeast and mold...
How to Clean It Properly: Turn the ice-maker off, empty the ice from the ice bin and wash the bin with mild dish soap and warm water using a sponge or soft cloth. Wipe dry with a clean towel. If you’re also cleaning the refrigerator’s water dispensing system with vinegar, be sure to throw away the first batch of ice, since it still might taste sour from the vinegar solution. Clean monthly.
