Recipe: Honey Ginger White Fish<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Here’s a recipe for Honey Ginger Sauce that is used to make Honey Ginger White Fish. Be sure to scroll down to learn about some of the ingredients I discovered to make this dish easier. And also remember that sauces and spice blends are generally very versatile. Honey-Ginger Sauce, for instance, can also be used on chicken, pork, stir-fried rice and many vegetables.<\/em><\/p>\n

Following is a quick summary of the dish. See\/print the full recipes here: Honey-Ginger Sauce<\/a><\/span> and Honey-Ginger White Fish<\/a><\/span>. And following the recipe summary, check out the New Ingredient Notes.<\/p>\n

Serves 1<\/strong><\/p>\n

Step 1: Season Fish<\/strong> and allow to firm while making sauce.<\/p>\n

Step 2: Make Sauce<\/strong> by stirring together and warming honey, soy sauce, ginger powder, garlic granules, toasted sesame oil, chile flakes and orange juice.<\/p>\n

Step 3: Fry Fish<\/strong> (and optional green onions) in coconut oil, until fish is cooked halfway through. Flip fish, pour in sauce and cook fish through. Remove fish to a plate.<\/p>\n

Step 4: Reduce Sauce<\/strong> after removing fish, simmer sauce until thickened and reduced by half and fairly thick. Drizzle over cooked fish and serve. Especially nice over brown rice and alongside a green vegetable like green beans, asparagus or broccoli.<\/p>\n

NEW INGREDIENT NOTES<\/strong><\/p>\n

Garlic Granules<\/strong>:<\/span> I know I’m late to this garlic party but I finally bought a package (that will likely last a lifetime!) While I’m still a fresh garlic snob, I admit that granules are surely a nice shortcut–especially for sauces and spice blends! See the sauce recipe below and I’ll share a spice blend using them in the next post.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

NOTE: Garlic granules contain no salt, making them different than garlic salt. They are also coarser than powdered garlic which makes them better for certain uses as explained in this article<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n

Bottled OJ<\/span><\/strong>: In the past I always kept a can of OJ in the freezer to add a little sweet citrus flavor to a sauce or dish. But I’ve been having a hard time finding frozen oj–have you? One day, walking through the bottled juice aisle I saw this bottled version. What I don’t use immediately, I freeze in ice cube trays and store in a Mason jar (just like extra tomato paste<\/a><\/span>!) I then have a handy way to add orange flavor to a dish or sauce, like the Honey-Ginger Sauce below.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Sitka Seafood for Quality Fish<\/span><\/strong> For this dish I used Pacific Cod that I got from Sitka Seafood<\/a>.<\/span> This company is “laser-focused on sourcing the best fish from sustainable small-boat fishermen and shortening the supply chain between the fisherman and the consumer.”<\/p>\n

Even though its fish is frozen, I’ve found the taste comparable to fresh–especially once their culinary advisor shared how to property thaw and prep it. This recipe is actually a riff on one she shared.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
