Best Miso Glazed Broiled Halibut Recipes

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.

NINA SIMONDS'S BROILED HALIBUT WITH MISO GLAZE

Steps:

• In small bowl, combine ginger, mirin and miso, and mix until smooth. Rub on flesh side of fish pieces. Marinate 30 minutes.

HALIBUT WITH BALSAMIC GLAZE

Steps:

• Whisk the vinegar, honey, oil, and garlic in a bowl. Arrange halibuts in an 8-inch square baking dish. Pour marinade over the fish, coating it completely. Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours.
• Preheat the broiler. Line the bottom and sides of a baking sheet with foil. Spray the foil with nonstick cooking spray. Remove fish from marinade, reserving marinade, and arrange the fillets atop the baking sheet. Pour the marinade into a heavy small saucepan. Broil the fillets until they are just cooked through and caramelized on top, about 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile bring the marinade to a boil and simmer until it thickens slightly and becomes syrupy, whisking often, about 15 minutes. Spoon off any excess oil from the sauce, if desired.
• Transfer the fillets to plates. Spoon the sauce over and around the fillets, and serve.

• Preheat broiler. Line a heavy baking sheet with aluminum foil. Lightly oil foal or coat with nonstick spray and set aside.
• Place halibut on prepared baaking sheet and brush tops with half the miso glaze. Broil 3-4 inches from the flame until golden brown (4-5 minutes).
• Turn over, brush with remaining glaze. Sprinckle sesame seeds on topa nd broil until fish is opaque in the center (3-4 minutes).
• Serve with lime wedges and pickled ginger.

MISO GLAZED HALIBUT

Steps:

• Remove the fish from the refrigerator, and salt it lightly. Set aside while preparing the miso mixture.
• Combine the miso, mirin and sake in a small bowl, mixing until well combined.
• Pread the miso mixture on all sides of the fish (except the skin side) and set aside for 20 minutes at room temperature. If your kitchen is very warm (summer, heat wave), you could refrigerate for up to an hour.
• Preheat your broiler, setting the rack so that your fish will be about 3 inches below the heat source.
• When hot, broil the fish for 5-6 minutes, until the miso glaze is golden brown, and the fish is cooked through.

MISO-GLAZED FISH FILLETS

Steps:

• Combine mirin, vinegar, miso, and sugar in a small saucepan. Whisking constantly, cook over medium heat until sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat; transfer glaze to a small bowl and let cool completely.
• Heat broiler, with rack 6 inches from heat source. Coat a baking sheet lightly with oil. Arrange fish on sheet, and brush generously with miso glaze. Broil until fillets are browned on top and opaque throughout, 6 to 8 minutes. (If the top of the fish browns before it's cooked through, cover loosely with foil.) Serve warm.
