Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces cod fillets
- 3 tablespoons gluten-free white miso paste
- 2 tablespoons gluten-free soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons mirin
- 2 tablespoons sake
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons green onions, sliced
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
Instructions
In a small mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free white miso paste, gluten-free soy sauce, mirin, sake, brown sugar, and grated ginger. Stir until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
Place the cod fillets in a shallow dish and pour the miso marinade over them, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) with a rack set in the upper third of the oven.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil and lightly brush it with sesame oil to prevent sticking.
Remove the marinated cod fillets from the refrigerator, allowing any excess marinade to drip off before placing them on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the cod fillets in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Once cooked, remove the cod from the oven and transfer to serving plates. Garnish with sliced green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
Serve the gluten-free miso cod immediately, accompanied by steamed rice or a fresh salad for a balanced meal.
