Most of the time you’ll find Miso-marinated Black Cod recipes. THIS recipe is a bit different and highlights the firm texture and high-oil content of this delicious fish!

Ingredients

  • Alaska Sablefish

  • 6 Alaska sablefish fillets (approx. 7 oz. each)
  • 2 cups acacia honey
  • 1 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 3⁄4 cup grapeseed oil
  • 3⁄4 cup white wine vinegar
  • Fine sea salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper

  • Wilted Spinach or Pea Leaves

  • 3 garlic cloves, peeled and chopped
  • 3 tbsp. unsalted butter
  • 12 to 15 cups baby spinach, stems removed, or pea leaves
  • Nutmeg, ground
  • Fine sea salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, ground, to taste

Instructions

  1. Step 1 Prepare greens. In a pan, melt butter with garlic until butter turns golden brown. Add spinach and pinch of nutmeg, salt, and black pepper. Cook just until wilted.
  2. Step 2 Marinate fish. Combine honey, soy sauce, grapeseed oil, and vinegar in a bowl. Stir and place black cod fillets in the bowl. Cover and refrigerate for 24 hours.
  3. Step 3 Roast fish. Preheat the oven to 450°F. Remove fish from marinade and season with salt and black pepper. Place fillets on a cookie sheet and cook in the oven until they have a golden/dark-brown hue and are cooked through, about 7 to 8 minutes.
  4. Step 4 To serve. Spoon wilted spinach or pea leaves equally between 6 plates, top with fillet and spoon some marinade over and around the fish.
