Ingredients
- 4 (6 oz each) Chilean sea bass fillets
- 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons mirin
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
- 2 green onions, sliced
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, mirin, rice vinegar, ginger, garlic, honey, and sesame oil until honey is dissolved.
- Place sea bass fillets in a shallow dish or resealable bag. Pour marinade over fish, turning to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Remove fish from marinade and pat dry with paper towels; discard remaining marinade.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Place fillets skin-side down (if skin-on) and cook 4 minutes.
- Flip fillets and cook another 3-4 minutes until fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
- Transfer to plates, sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onions. Serve immediately.
Tips
- Do not marinate longer than 30 minutes as the acid can start to cook the fish.
- Serve with steamed rice and sautéed bok choy for a complete meal.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 2 days; reheat gently in a skillet.
