Cantonese Fish in the Microwave!

We are not big fish eaters in this house. 
Hubby likes to catch them, but not so much eating them.
He is happier with shellfish but will "humor" me from time to time.

A few years ago we went on a small charter boat when we were in Florida and I caught the only "keepers", with 3 really good size Spanish Mackerel.  
He had caught a shark that was trailing us and probably getting everyone else's bait and fish.  He loved the challenge.
But he wasn't too keen on eating my Mackerel winnings, which we had prepared at one of the local restaurants.  He did have a little bit.  
One of the things I like about this recipe is that it highlights the versatility of the Tupperware SmartSteamer.  
Who knew you could make really good fish in the MICROWAVE!!
