Miso-Marinated Broiled Sablefish

Recipe by Myra Kornfeld
Write a Review
This is one of those fish dishes that you rarely see outside of fine Japanese restaurants. It's guaranteed to elicit moans of appreciation at the table. Sablefish (also known, inaccurately, as "black cod") is marinated up to overnight in a blend of miso, sake and mirin for a sweet and savory combination. The fish has a smooth buttery texture and sweet rich flavor. In a pinch, salmon is a delicious standby.
Yield: Serves 4
Total Time: 2 hrs 20 min
Prep: 10 min
Cook: 10 min
Additional: 2 hrs
Ingredients
4 Vital Choice Alaskan sablefish portions (4 ounces each)
1/2 cup mellow or sweet white miso
1/2 cup sake
1/2 cup mirin or sherry
1 tablespoon natural brown sugar, such as maple sugar or succanat
2 tablespoons shoyu
1 tablespoon minced ginger (from a 1-inch peeled chunk)
1 tablespoon brown rice vinegar
1/4 cup snipped chives or thinly sliced scallions
Preparation
1.  Mix the miso, sake, mirin, sugar, shoyu, ginger, and vinegar together in a medium bowl. Remove 1/3 cup of the marinade and reserve.
2.  Arrange the fish in a 2-inch-deep baking dish just large enough to hold the fish in 1 layer. Pour the marinade over the fish and turn to coat well. Marinate, covered and chilled, at least 2 hours and up to overnight.
3.  Preheat the broiler.
4.  Remove the fish from the marinade, letting excess drip off.  Place on a broiler-proof pan and broil 5 to 10 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish, until cooked through and browned on top.
5.  Remove and drizzle the fish with the reserved marinade. Serve hot, sprinkled with chives or scallions.
