Baked Fish With Toasted Sesame Seeds Recipes

FISH WITH MUSTARD SEEDS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Cut fish into strips 2 inches wide. Rub on all sides with mixture of red pepper, turmeric, 1 teaspoon salt, and lemon juice. In a nonstick frying pan heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat and lightly brown the fish in 2 batches if necessary, placing skin side down and turning after 1 or 2 minutes. Remove fish from pan and set aside.
• In the same pan wiped clean, over medium heat, fry onion in 2 tablespoons oil until light brown. Add garlic and mustard seeds and stir for 1 minute. Add tomatoes and spice mixture and fry until tomatoes become very soft and break up. Add cilantro and salt and continue stirring until the mixture becomes a paste.
• Remove from heat, add yogurt, and stir to blend.
• Arrange fish in a single layer in a baking dish. Pour sauce over fish, cover with aluminum foil, and bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes until opaque.

BAKED FISH WITH TOASTED SESAME SEEDS

Steps:

• Place the orange juice, brown sugar, ketchup, soy sauce, lemon juice, oil, and black pepper in a small bowl; stir well to combine.
• Arrange the fish in a single layer in a baking dish. Pour the orange juice mixture over the fillets. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 2 hours, turning once.
• Remove the fillets from the marinade, reserving the marinade. Pour the marinade into a small saucepan. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer for 5 minutes. Set half of the marinade aside.
• Place fillets on a lightly greased rack in a shallow roasting pan. Broil fillets 6 inches from heat for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork, basting occasionally with the marinade.
• Transfer fish to a serving platter. Sprinkle the toasted sesame seeds (I toast mine in a skillet while the fish is in the oven) over the fillets, and serve with the reserved marinade.

SESAME-SEED FISH FILLETS

Steps:

• Put the fish fillets in a dish and add the lemon juice and Worcestershire sauce. Turn the fillets in the mixture and let stand until ready to cook.
• Put the beaten egg, milk, salt and pepper in a flat dish and stir to blend. Put the sesame seeds and cheese in a separate dish and blend.
• Put the flour in a third dish.
• Lift the fillets one at a time and, using the fingers, wipe off much, but not all, of the marinating liquid. Dip the fillets one at a time in flour to coat well. Dip the pieces into the egg mixture to coat on both sides. Dip in the sesame seed mixture to coat well.
• Heat the oil and butter in a skillet and add the fish fillets (it may be necessary to cook the fish in two steps if the skillet is not large enough, but the amount of oil and butter indicated should be sufficient). Cook two minutes and turn carefully with a pancake turner or spatula. Cook about two minutes on the second side.
• If all the fillets have not been cooked, add a second batch to the skillet and continue cooking in the same manner. Transfer the fillets to a warm platter. Pour the pan fat over all. Garnish with lemon wedges.

SESAME CRUSTED FISH

Steps:

• Marinate fish in the soy and sesame oil for 15 minutes.
• Drain and dust the fish in flour.
• Dip into the egg and then roll in the sesame seeds.
• Deep fry the pieces in 360 degree oil for 4 or 5 minutes. No longer -- the sesame seeds scorch easily and will be bitter.
• Make a simple dipping sauce with some soy sauce diluted with about a 50/50 ratio of water and some fresh grated ginger. Delicious!
• You may need to cook this in two batches so that the temperature of the oil doesn't plummet. The oil needs to maintain a constant 360 temperature if possible.

BAKED FISH WITH SESAME AND GINGER

Steps:

• Season each fillet lightly with salt and pepper. Combine ginger and sesame oil in a small bowl, then rub the mixture on the fillets, massaging with fingers to coat evenly.
• Place the fish in one layer in a baking dish, and tightly cover the dish with foil. Let the fish marinate at room temperature for 15 minutes, or refrigerate up to 3 hours and bring to room temperature before baking.
• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Bake the fish on the top rack for 10 minutes. Remove foil and check to make sure the fish is cooked through. Return to oven for 1 or 2 more minutes, if necessary.
• Transfer the fish to plates or a serving platter. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and scallions and garnish with a few slices pickled ginger. Serve with stir-fried spinach and steamed rice, if desired.

ASIAN SESAME COD

Steps:

• Place fillets in a greased 8-in. square baking dish. In a small bowl, combine the wine, onions, brown sugar, ginger, vinegar, soy sauce, oil, garlic and lemon-pepper. Spoon over fillets; sprinkle with sesame seeds. , Bake, uncovered, at 400° for 15-20 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.

CRISPY SESAME FISH

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/fan200C/gas 7. Tip crumbs into a bowl with half the sesame seeds. Brush fish fillets with yogurt and coat in the crumb mix. Lay on a baking tray and sprinkle over the remaining seeds. Drizzle with a little olive oil, then bake for 15-20 mins. Serve with oven-baked potato wedges.

TASTY SESAME TILAPIA

Steps:

• Stir the orange juice, soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, garlic, and ginger in a 9x13 inch baking dish until combined. Add the tilapia fillets, turning once to evenly coat. Cover the dish with plastic wrap, and marinate in the refrigerator at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Remove the plastic wrap, and bake in the preheated oven until the fish flakes easily with a fork, 9 to 11 minutes.

BAKED SESAME CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place soy sauce in a 9x13 inch baking dish. On a piece of wax paper, mix together the sesame seeds, flour, salt and pepper. Dip the chicken pieces in the soy sauce to coat, then dredge in the sesame seed mixture. Arrange in baking dish in a single layer, then drizzle with melted butter.
• Bake at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for approximately 40 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and tender and juices run clear. Baste with drippings once during cooking time. Garnish with extra sesame seeds if desired, and serve.
