Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cod fillets (5–6 oz each)
  • ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1½ tsp fresh grated ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • Optional garnishes: green onions, sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Make the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, honey (or maple syrup), rice vinegar, garlic, and ginger.
  2. Marinate the Fish: Place cod fillets in a shallow dish or resealable bag and pour the marinade over them. Let sit for 15–30 minutes.
  3. Cook the Cod: To Bake: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking dish with parchment paper and bake for about 12–15 minutes until fish flakes easily. To Pan-Sear: Heat a skillet over medium heat with oil. Cook each fillet for about 3–4 minutes per side while spooning extra marinade on top.
  4. Optional Glaze: Simmer leftover marinade in a saucepan and thicken with cornstarch slurry if desired.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Plate the cod with sauce drizzled on top and garnish. Pair with rice or veggies.
