Servings: 4 people
Ingredients
- 1/2 pound (250g) sea bass (2 fillets)
- 4 tablespoons sake
- 1/2 teaspoon mirin
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
Ginger Ponzu Sauce
- 5 tablespoons Kikoman Ponzu sauce
- 1/2 inch (1cm) fresh ginger grated
Instructions
- Marinate the sea bass in sake, mirin, and soy sauce for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C). Pan-sear both sides of the sea bass until the surface is lightly browned. Transfer the fish fillets to the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes.
- Pour the ginger ponzu sauce generously over the baked sea bass and serve hot.
Notes
- Go for fresh sea bass fillets to get the tastiest flavor and texture.
- Marinate the sea bass fillet for at least 30 minutes to boost its flavor.
- Make sure your oven is preheated to 400°F (204°C) to ensure even cooking of the sea bass fillet.
- Watch the sea bass closely while baking to avoid overcooking—it can dry out fast. Test with a fork to ensure it flakes easily and cooks through while staying juicy.
- Try the ginger ponzu sauce before pouring it over the sea bass to adjust the seasoning to your liking.
