Steamed Sculpin (California Scorpion Fish). Fast easy and delicious.

Here is a good specimen of the Sculpin.
It is a bottom dweller with a ferocious appetite. 

I start with a pot with a couple of cups of water in it.

I have a mesh colander although a regular colander will do fine.

Place the colander on the top of the pot, and line it with the fillets of the fish skin side down!

Spread them evenly and put the thicker part of the fillet towards the center.

Then season with Garlic salt and Black pepper.

Then place Kale over the top of the fish and turn the burner on high. 

Be sure to cover the pot!

Listen for the Hard Boil then turn heat to medium 

keeping the steam coming on strong for 20 minutes.

place a pad of butter on the greens and let it melt.

 Then toss the Kale around a bit.

 The butter will get to the fish and coat it lightly for a little taste.

Plate the greens and place the fish over the kale carefully 

skin side down for that beautiful presentation.

Awesome with a baked potato or rice.
