Equipment

  • baking sheet
  • bowl
  • whisk
  • Refrigerator

Ingredients
  

Sea bass

  • 4 fillets Chilean Sea bass Fillets with skin on

Miso Marinade

  • ¼ cup white miso paste
  • 2 tablespoons Soy Sauce
  • 1.5 tablespoons Brown Sugar
  • 2 tablespoons rice Vinegar

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Make the marinade. Start by mixing the miso paste, sugar, soy sauce and rice vinegar in a bowl. Whisk that together until it looks like a smooth paste.
  • Marinate the fish. Take the chilean sea bass and slather it with the miso mixture marinade. Make sure to coat the fillets on both sides and edges, and everywhere.
  • Now let the fish marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight.
  • Prepare the baking pan. You can use a baking sheet pan with a rack, or use a regular baking sheet lined with foil. Avoid using parchment paper with the broil.
  • Cook the fish. Preheat the oven's broiler to the highest setting. Place the sheet pan about 8 inches from the heat source, so basically on the first rack.
  • Broil the fish until golden brown with the top caramelized, and the fish flakes easily.
  • Garnish & serve right away with a sprinkle with chilli, sesame seeds, green onions, or a squeeze of citrus for brightness.
  • You can use our popular Chili Oil Recipe for another level of flavor. You'll notice more notes of garlic and ginger with that.

Notes

Black Cod and Chilean Sea Bass are both expensive fish, so make sure you get them from a good source. You can use rice vinegar as a substitute for sake or mirin.
