Description

Easy Ginger Soy Cod is a flavorful and light recipe that transforms your dinner table with a sweet and savory blend of ginger and soy sauce complementing delicate cod. It’s a healthy and delicious seafood dish perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cod fillets (about 6 ounces each)
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar (optional)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 green onion, thinly sliced (for garnish)
  • Sesame seeds (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, grated ginger, honey or maple syrup, olive oil, rice vinegar (if using), minced garlic, and black pepper to prepare the marinade.
  2. Place the cod fillets in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the cod and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 1 hour in the refrigerator.
  3. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Alternatively, you can cook the cod on the stove or grill.
  4. If baking, lightly grease a baking dish with cooking spray or a little olive oil.
  5. Remove the cod from the marinade and place it in the prepared baking dish. Reserve the marinade for later use.
  6. Bake the cod for 10-12 minutes, or until it flakes easily with a fork.
  7. While the cod is baking, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan and bring it to a simmer. Cook for 3-5 minutes until slightly thickened to create a sauce.
  8. Once the cod is cooked, drizzle the thickened sauce over the fillets.
  9. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds for added crunch and visual appeal.

Notes

  • Use fresh ginger and quality cod for the best flavor.
  • Monitor cooking time to prevent overcooking, which can lead to a dry texture.
  • Customize the marinade by adding chili flakes for heat or citrus zest for brightness.
  • A squeeze of fresh lime juice can elevate the dish.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days.
