Broiled Black Cod with a Sweet Ginger Soy Glaze

Joan says…”I cooked it at 400 because I didn’t want the carrots that I was roasting at the same time to go any higher. The fish was fairly thick, so it was in the oven for about 30 minutes. Also, since my broiler doesn’t work very well, I didn’t do the final step with the chopped green onion and sesame seeds. Instead, while the fish was in the oven, I added 1 tablespoon of cornstarch to the marinade, then reduced it on the stove. Given the volume of liquid, I probably should have used 2 tablespoons of cornstarch. Enjoy!”
Ingredients
- 1 lb Black Cod Fillet
- 1/2 cup chopped Green Onion
- 1 Tbsp Sesame Seeds
- 1 cup of Soy Sauce
- 3/4 cup of Mirin
- 1 Tbsp fresh shredded Ginger
- 1 1/2 tsp chopped Garlic
- 1 1/2 Tbsp Sesame Oil
- 4 Tbsp Brown Sugar
Preparation
Cut Sablefish fillets into 5 to 8oz portions. Marinate portions in sauce in a ziplock bag for at least 30 minutes (or longer, depending on personal taste). Turn bag over several times for maximum coverage. Spray baking pan or sheet with non-stick cooking spray. Lay out portions and bake in a preheated oven at 450 degrees for about 12-14 minutes or until meat almost pulls apart. Remove fish from oven, switch oven to broil, and garnish fish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds. Return pan to the middle rack of oven, broil for another 2-4 minutes until top is brown and slightly crispy. Serve with rice and your favorite vegetable.
