Hyvee Culinary Expert Tip
Chile peppers contain volatile oils that can burn your skin and eyes. When working with hot peppers, wear protective gloves.
Pour stock and fish over vegetables in serving bowl. Add fresh spinach; stir gently, careful not to break the fish. Pour hot chili oil over fish.
Garnish with additional fresh cilantro and chili pepper crunch sauce, if desired. Serve immediately. Discard dried chilies.
