Filipino Fish Steak is the Fish version of Bistek Tagalog, which is also known as Filipino Beef Steak. This dish is simple and easy to prepare. If you have been visiting this food blog for a while, you should be aware that I always speak of what I think is the truth – and this recipe is something that is easy and delicious. If you love rice, try to control your intake because you are likely to eat more.

Filipino Fish Steak makes use of boneless bangus belly. Bangus or milkfish is the national fish of the Philippines. I get my bangus belly from the Filipino store; it is already prepared this way – bones and scales are removed and all that I need to do is to slice the fish into serving pieces; this saves me a lot of time.
It will only require a small amount of time for you to prepare Filipino Fish Steak. It will be ready before your rice even cooks completely. Although I used bangus for this recipe, you can always use other types of fish. For example, mahi-mahi fillet is something that I love t use if I can’t grab hold of milkfish. As long as it white, you won’t have an issue.
