Equipment
- oven with broiler
Ingredients
Glaze
- 2 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon sesame seeds

Instructions
Preparation
- Combine all glaze ingredients (soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, and sesame seeds) in a small bowl.
- Place the cod filets in a glass dish. Pat dry with a paper towel.
- Brush 1 tablespoon of the glaze over the cod filets. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes - 2 hours. Reserve the remaining glaze for cooking.
- Set the oven to low broil and position a rack in the center. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
- Place the cod filets on the lined sheet pan and brush with glaze.
- Broil on low for 12-14 minutes, brushing with glaze every 2-3 minutes, or until you run out of glaze.
- Turn the broiler on to high and broil for 4-5 more minutes, or until the outside is browned and the internal temperature reaches 135-140°F.
- Transfer the filets to a serving plate. Garnish with green onions. Enjoy!
Notes
Cod can be replaced with other white-fleshed fish like halibut or haddock. For a citrusy twist, replace the rice vinegar with lime juice. Green onions are an optional garnish, and you can double the glaze for extra flavor.
