Ingredients

– ¼ cup soy sauce
– 2 tablespoons fresh ginger, grated

Instructions
To prepare the Ginger Soy Glazed Cod, follow these straightforward steps:
1. Mix the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, grated ginger, minced garlic, honey (or maple syrup), sesame oil, and rice vinegar until well combined.
2. Prepare the Cod: Pat the cod fillets dry with paper towels and place them in a shallow dish or a zip-top bag.
3. Marinate the Cod: Pour the marinade over the cod, ensuring it is well-coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for 15 minutes for maximum flavor.
4. Preheat the Pan: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add a little oil for cooking.
5. Cook the Cod: Remove the cod from the marinade, reserving the marinade for later. Place the fillets in the pan and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
6. Add the Marinade: Pour the reserved marinade into the skillet with the cod during the last minute of cooking, allowing it to thicken slightly.
7. Finish and Garnish: Once the cod is fully cooked, remove it from the heat and transfer to a serving plate. Drizzle any leftover sauce over the top. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.
With these clear and manageable steps, your Ginger Soy Glazed Cod will be ready to serve in no time!
