Mango Miso Fish Recipes

MISO-GLAZED FISH FILLETS

Steps:

• Combine mirin, vinegar, miso, and sugar in a small saucepan. Whisking constantly, cook over medium heat until sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat; transfer glaze to a small bowl and let cool completely.
• Heat broiler, with rack 6 inches from heat source. Coat a baking sheet lightly with oil. Arrange fish on sheet, and brush generously with miso glaze. Broil until fillets are browned on top and opaque throughout, 6 to 8 minutes. (If the top of the fish browns before it's cooked through, cover loosely with foil.) Serve warm.

MISO-GLAZED FISH

Steps:

• Combine the mirin and sake in the smallest saucepan you have and bring to a boil over high heat. Boil 20 seconds, taking care not to boil off much of the liquid, then turn the heat to low and stir in the miso and the sugar. Whisk over medium heat without letting the mixture boil until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from the heat and whisk in the sesame oil. Allow to cool. Transfer to a wide glass or stainless steel bowl or baking dish.
• Pat the fish fillets dry and brush or rub on both sides with the marinade, then place them in the baking dish and turn them over a few times in the marinade remaining in the dish. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate for 2 to 3 hours, or for up to a day.
• Light the broiler or prepare a grill. Line a sheet pan with foil and oil the foil. Tap each fillet against the sides of the bowl or dish so excess marinade will slide off. Place skin side up on the baking sheet if broiling.
• Place the fish skin side down on the grill, or skin side up under the broiler, about 6 inches from the heat. Broil or grill for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until the surface browns and blackens in spots. If necessary (this will depend on the thickness of the fillets) finish in a 400-degree oven, for about 5 minutes, until the fish is opaque and can be pulled apart easily with a fork.

CARIBBEAN FISH WITH MANGO SALSA

Steps:

• Mix together the paprika, curry powder, cumin, allspice, ginger, coriander, salt, black pepper, fennel, and cayenne pepper in a bowl; set the spice mix aside.
• In a bowl, lightly toss the mango, pineapple, red bell pepper, black beans, red onion, and cilantro in a bowl; pour lime juice over the mango mixture, and toss again. Cover the bowl, and refrigerate until chilled, at least 30 minutes.
• Whisk together the egg and milk in a bowl. In a separate shallow bowl, stir the panko crumbs with coconut. Stir about 1 tablespoon of the spice mix, or to taste, into the panko crumb mixture.
• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Dip tilapia fillets into the egg mixture, then press gently into the panko crumb mixture to coat both sides of fillets. Brush off any loose crumbs, then lay the fillets into the hot oil. Pan-fry until the fish is opaque inside and golden brown outside, 3 to 5 minutes per side or as needed. Serve with mango salsa.

MISO HONEY GLAZED FISH

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 475 degrees F.
• Whisk together the miso and honey in a small bowl. Lay the fish fillets in a 6 by 10-inch glass baking dish and brush with the glaze. Put the dish in the oven on the middle rack and bake until the fish reaches an internal temperature of 135 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, about 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest in the dish for 5 minutes before serving.

MANGO GLAZE FOR FISH, CHICKEN, OR PORK

Steps:

• Heat the vinegar in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the sugar and cook until thickened slightly. Add jalapeno, ginger, and mango and continue cooking until softened. Add the lime juice. Transfer to a food processor and puree until smooth. Strain, if necessary. Consistency will be thick and jam-like, but can be thinned to more of a glaze consistency with honey or water.

SWORDFISH WITH MISO MAYONNAISE

Steps:

• Broil swordfish steaks in oven.
• While fish are cooking, mix remaining ingredients very well with a whisk and set aside.
• Brush miso mayonaisse on fish for the last 3 or 4 minutes of broiling.
• Watch carefully!
• Brown the dressing but don't burn.
• Serve with soy sauce and lemon juice dipping sauce.

MISO BUTTERFISH

Steps:

• Combine miso, sugar, sake, and mirin in a large glass or ceramic bowl; stir until sugar is dissolved. Add fish fillets and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 24 hours minimum.
• Remove fillets from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add fillets to the hot skillet in batches; cook until flesh flakes easily with a fork, about 5 minutes per side.

FISH WITH MANGO SALSA

Steps:

• Prepare fish: drizzle with half of the lime juice, rub with garlic, and sprinkle with pepper. Set aside to allow to marinade while you prepare the salsa.
• Prepare salsa: combine the rest of the lime juice with the mango, cilantro, jalapeno pepper, onion, and black pepper to taste.
• Cook fish: in a frying pan, heat olive oil. Add fish, and cook 3 minutes. Using a large silicone spatula, carefully flip over the fish and cook on the other side, about 3 minutes longer or until it flakes with a fork. Alternately, cook on a Foreman grill for 3 minutes.
• Transfer from grill to serving plate; spoon salsa atop shark.

MANGO-MISO FISH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450°F.
• Wipe the inside and lid of a cast-iron Dutch oven with macadamia nut oil.
• Rinse the rice in a strainer under cold water until the water runs clear. Pour the rice and the lentils into the pot and add the liquid. Sprinkle with mint. Place the fish on top.
• In a small bowl, mix the mango, miso, mirin, and sake, then pour over the fish. Lightly season with salt and pepper. Cover with the mushroom and bell pepper slices.
• Arrange the tomato wedges in a layer. Top with the spinach until the pot is full.
• Cover and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until 3 minutes after the aroma of a fully cooked meal escapes the oven. Serve immediately.
