- For the glazed carrots, slice the peeled carrots, on the diagonal, into 1/2" thick slices.
- Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the ginger and carrots. Sauté for 1-2 minutes, until the ginger has softened.
- Stir in the soy sauce and honey, season with pepper, and reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer until the carrots have softened, about 10-15 minutes.
- Uncover, increase heat to medium-high, and simmer until most of the liquid has evaporated.
- To make the citrus butter sauce, place the white wine, shallots, and thyme in a small saucepan over medium heat and simmer until reduced by about half.
- Stir in the cream and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Add the orange, lime, and lemon juices. Reduce heat to low and whisk in the butter, 1 tablespoon at a time.
- Keep warm until ready to serve.
- Fry the Fish
- To prepare the fish, heat the canola oil in a large, heavy bottomed skillet, until about 350-375°F.
- Pat the fish filets fry and season with salt.
- Dredge the filets in the flour, then egg, then the breadcrumbs. Shake off any excess then fry until golden brown.
- Remove from the oil and drain on paper towels.
- Spoon the citrus butter sauce over the fish and serve with lemon wedges and the glazed carrots.
