Servings 2
Ingredients
Miso Glazed Cod
- 2 tbsp 30 ml sake
- 2 tbsp 30 ml mirin
- 2 tbsp 14 g white miso paste
- 1 tbsp 15 g sugar
- 2 1/2 lb [225 g] black cod fillets or chilean sea bass
Sesame Soy Quinoa
- 1 cup 185 g cooked quinoa
- 2 tsp 10 ml sesame oil
- 1 tsp 5 ml soy sauce
- to taste toasted sesame seeds
- to taste sliced green onions
Instructions
Miso-Glazed Cod
- In a small saucepan, bring the sake and mirin to a boil over medium-high heat. Stir in the miso and sugar until smooth, set aside and cool completely.
- Pat the cod dry with paper towels and slather on the cooled miso marinade. Place in a dish, cover and place in the fridge overnight.
- When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C). Gently wipe off the excess marinade and place the fish in a foil-lined ovenproof dish. Bake for 10-15 minutes, based on thickness. The fish is done when it is opaque and flakes easily.
- Finish by broiling: turn the broiler on high and watch carefully as the top caramelizes and turns a deep golden brown. Remove and enjoy immediately with the sesame soy quinoa.
Sesame Soy Quinoa
- Gently toss together the quinoa, sesame oil and soy sauce. Taste and adjust sesame oil and soy if needed. Top with sesame seeds and green onions.
