Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound black cod fillet
- 2 T sugar
- 4 T white miso
- 2 T sake or white wine
- 2 T mirin
- 2 green onions, finely sliced
- 1 t toasted sesame seed oil
Instructions
- Rinse your black cod and pat dry, leaving the skin in tact.
- Mix the remaining ingredients in a small glass bowl that is large enough to also hold the fish. Add the fish and turn to make sure the fish is thoroughly coated. Cover with plastic wrap and let marinate for 30 minutes to 3 days if your fish is very fresh.
- When you are ready to cook your fish, heat the oven to 400 degrees. In a sauté pan that is suitable for the stove top and the oven, heat the pan on medium high. Place the fish skin-side up in the pan and sear for a couple minutes. Flip the fish once and sear the other side. Finish the fish in the oven, cooking for 10 minutes. Fish will flake when done. Do not over cook.
