The lime and pear in the Pinot will bring out the ginger and coriander. Be mindful of how much chili you add to your dish, as large amounts can influence which wine to pair: simple rule if the food is spicy you'll typically need a wine with a bit more sweetness to pair it with.

Tips + Tricks
- The quality of the fish will make a big difference, so try and find your local best. This will vary greatly depending on where you live, but have a chat with your neighborhood fishmonger to get the freshest available!
- After removing the fish there might be some of the marinade in the pan. This can be cooked a bit further on medium heat to caramelize. It makes a great topping!
