Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Fish fillets (such as salmon or cod)
- 0.5 cup Fresh orange juice
- 1 teaspoon Orange zest
- 0.25 cup Teriyaki sauce
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Scallions, chopped (optional for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the orange juice, orange zest, teriyaki sauce, honey, minced garlic, and grated ginger to create the marinade.
Pat the fish fillets dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Place the fish fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Spoon half of the marinade over the fish, making sure each fillet is well-coated. Reserve the remaining marinade for later use.
Bake the fish in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
While the fish is baking, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan and bring it to a simmer over medium heat. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens slightly. Remove from heat.
Once the fish is done baking, transfer the fillets to a serving platter. Drizzle the thickened sauce over the fish.
Garnish with chopped scallions and sesame seeds, if desired. Serve immediately with steamed rice or sautéed vegetables for a complete meal.
