Description

This Chilean sea bass recipe marinates the fish in sake, mirin, miso paste, sugar, and soy sauce before broiling for melt-in-your-mouth deliciousness.

Ingredients

1/3 cup sake
1/3 cup mirin (Japanese sweet rice wine)
1/3 cup miso paste
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons soy sauce
4 (4 ounce) fillets fresh sea bass, about 1 inch thick
2 tablespoons chopped green onion

Directions

1 Whisk together sake, mirin, miso paste, brown sugar, and soy sauce in a bowl.
2 Place sea bass fillets in a large resealable plastic bag; pour marinade over fillets. Chill in the refrigerator for 3 to 6 hours.
3 Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Prop the oven door to remain slightly ajar.
4 Arrange fillets on a baking sheet; discard marinade.
5 Broil sea bass in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, 7 to 9 minutes.
6 Sprinkle with chopped green onions to serve.
