  • Author: Martha
  • Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

– 4 cod fillets (approximately 6 ounces each)
– 1/4 cup soy sauce (low sodium preferable)
– 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
– 2 tablespoons fresh ginger, grated
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 tablespoon sesame oil
– 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
– 1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 1 tablespoon water (for thickening, optional)
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Green onions, chopped (for garnish)
– Sesame seeds (for garnish)


Instructions

Creating the perfect Ginger Soy Glazed Cod is easy with these clear and concise steps:

1. Prepare Marinate: In a bowl, combine soy sauce, honey, grated ginger, minced garlic, sesame oil, and rice vinegar. Mix well.
2. Marinate Cod: Place cod fillets in a shallow dish and pour half of the marinade over them, reserving the other half. Let the fish marinate for about 15 minutes.
3. Preheat Pan: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of oil to prevent sticking.
4. Cook Cod: Remove cod from marinade and season with salt and pepper. Place fillets in the skillet, cooking for approximately 4-5 minutes on one side.
5. Flip Cod: Carefully turn the cod fillets and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until they are opaque and flake easily with a fork.
6. Thicken Sauce (Optional): If desired, add the reserved marinade to the skillet. Bring to a simmer and incorporate cornstarch slurry to thicken the sauce.
7. Serve Cod: Once cooked, plate the cod and drizzle the thickened glaze over the top.
8. Garnish: Sprinkle with chopped green onions and sesame seeds for an extra touch of flavor and presentation.
