Best Broiled Cod With Sesame Miso Sauce Recipes

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.

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.

MISO-GLAZED BLACK COD

Steps:

• Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly grease the aluminum foil.
• Whisk miso paste, water, mirin, sake, and brown sugar together in a small skillet over medium heat until mixture simmers and thickens slightly, 1 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and cool completely.
• Place cod fillets on prepared baking sheet. Brush fillets all over with miso mixture. Rest fillets at room temperature to quickly marinate, 15 to 20.
• Broil fillets in the preheated oven for 5 minutes. Turn the baking sheet 180 degrees and continue broiling until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 5 minutes more. Remove pin bones.

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.

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.

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.
