Broiled Cod With Sesame Miso Sauce Recipes

MISO GLAZED COD

Steps:

• Preheat broiler.
• Rinse fish fillets and pat dry with paper towels. Combine miso, brown sugar, sesame oil and mirin and stir well until brown sugar is fully dissolved.
• Brush about 2 tablespoons miso glaze on each fish fillet. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 1 hour. Place fish under broiler for 3 to 4 minutes, or until top is slightly charred and glaze has caramelized. Remove fish from oven and brush with remaining glaze. Lower oven to 375 degrees F. Cook an additional 5 to 6 minutes, until fish is flaky but not overcooked.
• If desired, serve with toasted sesame seeds and scallions.

BROILED SESAME COD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Line a broiler pan with aluminum foil.
• Place the cod fillets on the foil, and brush with butter. Season with lemon juice, tarragon, and black pepper; sprinkle with sesame seeds.
• Broil the fish in the preheated broiler until the flesh turns opaque and white, and the fish flakes easily, about 10 minutes.

BROILED COD WITH SESAME-MISO SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat broiler; rack should be 4 inches or less from heat source.
• Toast sesame seeds in a small dry skillet over medium heat, shaking pan until they color slightly.
• Grind to a powder in a spice or coffee grinder, or mortar and pestle.
• Whisk together sesame seeds, miso, sugar and soy sauce.
• Thin with a little water, mirin or more soy sauce if too thick.
• Adjust seasoning.
• This sauce can be covered and refrigerated for up to 2 days.
• Brush fish with oil; sprinkle with red pepper.
• Place fish on a baking sheet; place under broiler and cook, rotating sheet once so fish browns evenly on top and is cooked through, 6-10 minutes.
• Drizzle sesame-miso sauce on top; serve hot.

BLACK COD BROILED WITH MISO

Steps:

• Heat broiler; set rack 3 to 4 inches from heat source. Combine first three ingredients in a small saucepan and, over low heat, bring almost to a boil, stirring occasionally just until blended; mixture will be fairly thin. Turn off heat.
• Put fillets in an ovenproof baking dish or skillet, preferably nonstick, and spoon half the sauce on top. Broil until sauce bubbles and begins to brown, then spoon remaining amount over fish. Continue to broil, adjusting heat or rack position if sauce or fish is browning too quickly, until fish is just cooked through. Serve immediately.

BROILED COD WITH SESAME-MISO SAUCE

Steps:

• Place oven rack 4 inches or less from heat source. Heat broiler. In a small dry skillet over medium heat, toast sesame seeds, shaking pan until they color slightly. Grind to a powder in a spice or coffee grinder or use a mortar and pestle.
• Use a whisk to combine seeds with the miso, sugar and soy sauce. If the mixture is more like a paste than a sauce, thin it with a little water, mirin, or more soy sauce. Taste, and adjust seasoning. (Sauce may be covered and refrigerated for up to 2 days. Stir before serving.)
• Brush fish with oil, then sprinkle on a bit of cayenne. Place fish on a baking sheet, preferably nonstick, and put in broiler. Cook, rotating sheet once so fish browns evenly on top and is cooked through, 6 to 10 minutes. The fish is done when the point of a thin-bladed knife inserted into thickest part meets a little resistance. Drizzle sesame-miso sauce on top, and serve.

MISO COD WITH EDAMAME RICE

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Place the cod fillets on a foil-lined baking sheet. Stir the miso, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, the honey and ginger in a small bowl until smooth. Rub the cod all over with about 2 tablespoons of the sauce. Arrange flat-side down and spread the remaining sauce over the top of the fillets.
• Bring 1 1/2 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Stir in the rice and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Return to a boil, then stir and reduce the heat to medium low. Add the carrots on top of the rice, cover and cook until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender, about 15 minutes. Sprinkle the edamame on top, cover and let stand, 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, broil the cod until the sauce is browned and the fish flakes easily with a fork, 6 to 8 minutes, depending on the thickness.
• Fluff the rice to mix in the carrots and edamame. Add half the scallions and sesame seeds and the remaining 1 teaspoon sesame oil and stir to combine; season with salt and pepper. Divide the rice among plates. Top with the cod and sprinkle with the remaining scallions and sesame seeds.

BROILED COD WITH HOISIN GLAZE

Steps:

• Whisk together the hoisin sauce, ketchup, soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, garlic and ginger in a large bowl. Add the cod and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour.
• Remove the fish from the refrigerator. Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the broiler. Line a baking sheet with foil. Remove the fish from the marinade, reserving the marinade, and arrange on the pan (if the fillets are skin-on, arrange them skin-side down).
• Broil the fish 4 minutes. Brush with the reserved marinade, making sure to coat the top and sides. Rotate the pan 180 degrees and broil until the fish is charred in spots and flakes easily with a fork, 4 to 5 more minutes.
• Arrange the fillets on a platter. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced scallions.

MISO-GLAZED FISH

Steps:

• Combine the mirin and sake in the smallest saucepan you have and bring to a boil over high heat. Boil 20 seconds, taking care not to boil off much of the liquid, then turn the heat to low and stir in the miso and the sugar. Whisk over medium heat without letting the mixture boil until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from the heat and whisk in the sesame oil. Allow to cool. Transfer to a wide glass or stainless steel bowl or baking dish.
• Pat the fish fillets dry and brush or rub on both sides with the marinade, then place them in the baking dish and turn them over a few times in the marinade remaining in the dish. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate for 2 to 3 hours, or for up to a day.
• Light the broiler or prepare a grill. Line a sheet pan with foil and oil the foil. Tap each fillet against the sides of the bowl or dish so excess marinade will slide off. Place skin side up on the baking sheet if broiling.
• Place the fish skin side down on the grill, or skin side up under the broiler, about 6 inches from the heat. Broil or grill for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until the surface browns and blackens in spots. If necessary (this will depend on the thickness of the fillets) finish in a 400-degree oven, for about 5 minutes, until the fish is opaque and can be pulled apart easily with a fork.
