Miso Glazed Chilean Sea Bass
If you’re looking for a dish that’s both fancy and easy enough to pretend you’ve always cooked like a pro, look no further. With a crispy outside and a savory inside, this sea bass recipe is about to swim its way into your stomach!
Ingredients
- 4 pieces of Chilean sea bass (approx. 6 oz each)
- 1/4 cup of miso paste (white or yellow, because who doesn’t love options?!)
- 2 tablespoons of mirin (hello, sweet goodness!)
- 2 tablespoons of sugar (add a little sweetness to your life)
- 1 tablespoon of soy sauce (because we’re fancy like that)
- 1 tablespoon of grated ginger (make sure to impress with that grater)
- Sesame seeds for garnish (optional, but make it look snazzy)
- Chopped green onions for garnish (because green is the color of health, or something)
Instructions
- First things first, mix together the miso paste, mirin, sugar, soy sauce, and grated ginger in a bowl until it’s all blended and looking like a tropical dream.
- Place the Chilean sea bass fillets in a shallow dish and slather them with the delightful miso mixture. Let those babies marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, or longer if you want to play hard to get.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (or if you’re feeling wild, crank it up to 425°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper because cleanup is overrated.
- Arrange the marinated sea bass on the baking sheet. Don’t overcrowd them; give them space to shine like the culinary stars they are!
- Bake in the oven for about 10-12 minutes. You want that glorious fish to be flaky and just cooked through, but not swimming away!
- Remove from the oven and let rest for a couple of minutes. Plate with a sprinkle of sesame seeds and chopped green onions, and enjoy! Show this glamorous dish off to your friends and prepare for the compliments to roll in!
