Time 3h20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 c sake
1/2 c honey
1/4 c tamari soy sauce
1/4 c soy sauce
1 Tbsp distilled vinegar
1 clove crushed garlic
1 Tbsp corn starch
1 Tbsp cold water
1 1/2 lb chilean seabass
1 bunch scallions - greens only - finely chopped
1 Tbsp toasted sesame seeds

Steps:

  • 1. Combine first 6 ingredients to make a yakitori marinade. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
  • 2. While the marinade is heating, whisk together cornstarch and cold water.
  • 3. Once marinade comes to a full boil, whisk in the cornstarch mixture and simmer until sauce thickens.
  • 4. Let marinade cool.
  • 5. Add mixture to sea bass, toss to coat and marinade for 3 hours.
  • 6. Grill sea bass for 2 minutes on one side, rotating each piece 90 degrees after 1 minute to create a cross-hatch pattern (turning the fish over after only 2 minutes prevents the filets from falling apart ).
  • 7. Flip fish over and grill for an additional 12-15mins (depending on thickness) until flesh flakes easily, basting regularly with retained yakitori marinade
  • 8. Remove from grill and lightly sprinkle sesame seeds and scallions over the fish before serving
