Ingredients

  • 4 halibut fillets (6 oz each)
  • 2 tablespoons white miso paste
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 1 tablespoon chopped green onions (for garnish)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Мethod of preparation

Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare the miso glaze by whisking together the white miso paste, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, and toasted sesame oil in a small bowl until smooth. Pat dry the halibut fillets with paper towels and season them lightly with salt and pepper on both sides. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush a generous layer of the miso glaze over each fillet, ensuring an even coat. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top to add a crunchy texture. Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven and bake the halibut for about 12-15 minutes, depending on thickness, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. To finish, switch your oven to broil and place the halibut under the broiler for an additional 2-3 minutes, just until the glaze becomes golden and caramelized. Remove from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes. Serve hot, garnished with chopped green onions, and enjoy the delicate balance of flavors – the savory miso, nutty sesame, and the juicy halibut that melts in your mouth.
