Sablefish Recipe
Ingredients:
- 4 sablefish fillets (about 6 ounces each)
- 1/4 cup white miso paste
- 1/4 cup sake (Japanese rice wine)
- 1/4 cup mirin (sweet rice wine)
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Toasted sesame seeds (for garnish, optional)
- Sliced green onions (for garnish, optional)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Marinade:
- In a small saucepan, combine the white miso paste, sake, mirin, sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, grated ginger, and minced garlic.
- Heat the mixture over low heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar has dissolved and the ingredients are well combined. This should take about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.
- Marinate the Sablefish:
- Place the sablefish fillets in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag.
- Pour the cooled miso marinade over the fish, making sure to coat each fillet evenly.
- Seal the dish or bag and refrigerate it for at least 2 hours, or ideally overnight. Marinating overnight will allow the flavors to penetrate the fish more deeply.
- Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Cook the Sablefish:
- Remove the marinated sablefish from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for about 15-20 minutes.
- Place the fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or lightly greased.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. The cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fillets.
- Broil for a Glaze:
- If desired, you can switch your oven to the broil setting for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking to caramelize the top and give it a beautiful glaze. Be sure to keep a close eye on it to prevent burning.
- Garnish and Serve:
- Once the sablefish is done cooking, remove it from the oven.
- Garnish with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions, if desired.
- Serve the miso glazed sablefish hot with your choice of side dishes, such as steamed rice and sautéed vegetables.
This miso glazed sablefish recipe offers a perfect balance of sweet and savory flavors and is sure to impress your guests or satisfy your own culinary cravings. Enjoy!
