Prepare Panda Express Dipping Sauce according to the recipe in the Box below. Set aside.
If using whole fish, with sharp knife, cut striped bass along back, starting about 3 inches below tail.
Scrape knife against bones to free fillet, keeping skin intact.
Repeat on both sides of fillet and cut out bones.
Insert 1 skewer into tail. Insert 2 skewers into fillets on either side of tail. (This holds fish in place during cooking.) Repeat with remaining striped bass.
Pour oil in a large wok or deep saucepan large enough to hold fish. Heat oil to 350 - 375°F.
Brush both sides of fish with soy sauce and coat lightly with cornstarch.
When oil is hot and shimmering, gently slide fish into hot oil and cook 6 - 8 minutes, until lightly browned.
Remove from oil to a paper towel-covered plate to drain.
Place on serving plate. Carefully remove skewers and spread out fillet sides, with tail up for dramatic presentation.
Serve with prepared Panda Express Dipping Sauce.
