Miso Glazed Cod

Ingredients

• 4 6 oz Cod fillets
• 3 tbsp White miso paste
• 2 tbsp Mirin (gluten-free)
• 1 tbsp Rice vinegar
• 1 tbsp Honey
• 1 tbsp Gluten-free soy sauce (Tamari)
• 1 tsp Sesame oil
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 tsp Ginger
• 2 Green onions
• 1 tsp Sesame seeds
• 1 tbsp Avocado oil or other neutral oil
• 1/4 tsp Red pepper flakes
• 4 Lime wedge

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. 2

   In a small bowl, whisk together the miso paste, mirin, rice vinegar, honey, gluten-free soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Add red pepper flakes if desired.

3. 3

   Pat the cod fillets dry with paper towels. This helps the glaze adhere better.

4. 4

   Brush the miso glaze evenly over the top of each cod fillet.

5. 5

   Heat the avocado oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the cod fillets, glazed-side down, for 2-3 minutes, until lightly browned.

6. 6

   Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 8-12 minutes, or until the cod is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the fillets.

7. 7

   Remove from the oven and let rest for a minute or two.

8. 8

   Garnish with thinly sliced green onions and sesame seeds. Serve immediately with rice or your favorite sides. Squeeze fresh lime juice optional.
