    How to Make Sake-Miso Glazed Fish Fillets

    1. Combine Mirin and Sake

    Start by combining the mirin and sake in your smallest saucepan. Bring this mixture to a boil, which should take about 20 seconds.

    2. Add Miso Paste and Sugar

    Once the liquid is boiling, reduce the heat and stir in the miso paste and sugar. Keep whisking until the sugar dissolves completely, creating a smooth, non-grainy mixture.

    3. Incorporate Sesame Oil

    Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly before whisking in the sesame oil.

    4. Prepare and Marinate Fish Fillets

    Pat the fish fillets dry with a paper towel. Brush and rub the marinade generously over each fillet, making sure they are evenly coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 to 3 hours, or up to a day.

    5. Cook the Fish

    Prepare your broiler or grill. Line a sheet pan with foil and lightly oil the foil. Place the marinated fish fillets on the prepared pan. Broil or grill the fish for about 2 to 3 minutes on each side. You may need to place the fish in the oven for an additional 5 minutes if they’re particularly thick.

    Variations

    Protein Variants

    Use salmon, cod, chicken, tofu, or pork with the glaze.

    Cooking Methods

    Apply the glaze when grilling, broiling, or baking the protein.

    Flavor Twists

    Add ginger for spice, citrus zest for tang, or chili for heat to the glaze.

    Pairings and Accompaniments

    Serve with rice, vegetables, or noodles.
