Description

A Japanese marinade sauce gives a lovely taste and texture to broiled mackerel in this Japanese mackerel recipe. Yellowtail, tuna, or salmon are also good in this recipe. Easy and delectable!

Ingredients

4 mackerel fillets
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup mirin (Japanese sweet wine)
1 tablespoon white sugar
1/2 tablespoon grated fresh ginger root

Directions

1 Rinse fillets; pat dry with paper towels.
2 Mix together soy sauce, mirin, sugar, and fresh ginger in a medium bowl. Place fillets into marinade and let stand for at least 20 minutes.
3 Preheat the oven broiler or an outdoor grill for high heat.
4 Cook fillets in the preheated broiler, basting occasionally, until fish flakes easily with a fork, 5 to 8 minutes.
