Ingredients:

  • 4 (4-6 ounce) cod fillets, skin on or off
  • 1 tablespoon RA Seasonings Orange Ginger Garlic
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (low sodium preferred)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • Optional garnishes: chopped green onions, sesame seeds, lime wedges

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together the RA Seasonings Orange Ginger Garlic, soy sauce, honey (or maple syrup), rice vinegar, grated ginger, and minced garlic. Set aside.
  2. Marinate the Cod (Optional): For maximum flavor, place the cod fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Marinate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 30 minutes in the refrigerator. If short on time, you can skip this step and proceed directly to searing.
  3. Sear the Cod: Heat the sesame oil and vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the cod fillets in the skillet, skin-side down (if using skin-on fillets). Sear for 3-4 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden brown.
  4. Flip and Cook: Flip the cod fillets and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the cod is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Reduce the heat if necessary to prevent burning.
  5. Glaze (Optional): During the last minute of cooking, pour a tablespoon or two of the remaining marinade over the cod fillets and allow it to slightly thicken into a glaze.
  6. Serve: Remove the cod fillets from the skillet and serve immediately. Garnish with chopped green onions, sesame seeds, and a lime wedge, if desired.

Tips and Variations:

  • For extra flavor: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the marinade for a hint of spice.
  • Substitute protein: This recipe works well with other firm white fish such as halibut or snapper.
  • Make it a complete meal: Serve the ginger soy cod over rice, quinoa, or noodles. Add steamed vegetables like broccoli or asparagus for a balanced meal.
  • Meal prep friendly: This recipe is great for meal prepping. Cook the cod ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for quick and easy lunches or dinners throughout the week.
