Ingredients
  

  • 12 ounces cod * see note
  • 2 tablespoons miso paste * see note
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar * see note
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 lime

Instructions
 

  • Add all of the marinade ingredients to a bowl and whisk to blend. Reserve 2 tablespoons to brush over the cooked cod.
  • Place your cod onto a dish and use a paper towel to pat the cod dry. Dust with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Place the cod and marinade into a dish. Be sure the miso glaze is coating all of the fish.
  • Cover and place in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 375º F.
  • Line a baking dish with parchment paper and place the marinated cod on the paper. This will make clean up so much easier!
  • Bake for 10-15 minutes. The actual bake time will vary depending on how thick your cod pieces are. You will know the cod is finished baking when it feels firm to the touch and flakes easily.
  • Brush the remaining glaze on top of the cod and squeeze lime juice over the fish. Serve warm.

Notes

  1. You can use fresh or frozen cod. To thaw your cod, place it in the refrigerator a day before you make this recipe. You can't use frozen cod in this recipe because it will not absorb the miso glaze.
  2. Miso paste comes in many colors. A rule of thumb in choosing which to use is the darker the miso paste, the richer and saltier the flavor. I use a medium golden-colored paste in my recipe.
  3. Many ask if rice vinegar is gluten free. Most brands are gluten free, but a few will add other grains so be sure to read the labels.
  4. This baked cod will keep fresh for up to 3 days in the refrigerator. Store in an air-tight container.
  5. If you want to grill or cook this recipe in your air fryer, the directions are in the FAQ section.

SPECIAL NOTE

Please know that every gluten free flour blend has a different starch to grain ratio. If you use a blend I didn't test, you may need to adjust your moisture levels in your baked goods.
