This recipe produces the most beautiful, elegant, buttery,
sweet fish I have ever had. You will LOVE it!
1/3 cup mirin (Japanese seasoned rice wine)
1/3 cup sake
3 tbsp dark (preferably) soy sauce
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup white miso paste
1/4 orange marmalade (optional)
4 x (6-7 oz) fillets fresh Chilean sea bass, about 1 inch thick
2 tbsp chopped green onion
Turn oven to 400F
Start marinating the fish the night before.
Whisk together the sake, mirin, soy sauce, brown sugar, miso paste and marmalade (if using) in a bowl to make the marinade. Place the sea bass fillets in a sealable plastic bag and pour the marinade into the bag.
Chill in the refrigerator overnight, turning in the plastic bag occasionally.
Remove the fillets from the bag, discarding the liquid and dabbing the fish lightly with kitchen towel to remove excess marinade.
Arrange the fillets on a greased baking sheet and lightly sprinkle a little oil over the tops of the fish.
Roast for about 15 minutes or until it starts to flake when you put a fork into it
Sprinkle with the chopped green onions and serve.
