I agree, it's very tasty - one of my favorite Chinese restaurant
dishes. It's called "salt and pepper" and there are many variations -
salt and pepper shrimp, salt and pepper pork, salt and pepper squid,
salt and pepper spare ribs etc. Google has lots of "salt and pepper
fish" recipes for you to look at.
