directions
Miso-Mirin Glaze
In a small saucepan, bring the mirin and sake to a boil. Whisk in the miso until dissolved. Add sugar and salt and cook over moderate heat, whisking, just until dissolved. Transfer the marinade to a large baking dish and let cool. Add the fish and turn to coat. Let sit for 5 minutes (can sit in marinade for up to 2 hours).
Sear-Roast
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Heat a sauté pan and add a small film of canola oil. Scrape the marinade off the fish and reserve marinade. Pat fish dry with a paper towel. Sear the fish and cook over high heat until browned, about 2 minutes. Flip the fish onto a heavy rimmed sheet pan with browned side up and roast for about 8 minutes, until flaky.
Sauce
While the fish is cooking, reduce reserved marinade for 2 minutes. Do not over reduce or it will get thin and grainy. Serve fish with a small spoonful of sauce.
