I got this recipe from a cooking class I attended. The glaze would also be good on other seafood or pork. Recipe by chef Brian Patterson.

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 -4 whole rockfish or 2 -4 whole similar white fish fillets, gutted & cleaned,head on
1 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup sesame oil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh ginger
6 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
1 tablespoon chili paste
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 cup vegetable oil
5 cloves garlic, chopped
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup rice wine vinegar
3 tablespoons fish sauce
1 tablespoon finely julienned ginger
1/4 cup finely julienned red bell pepper
1 teaspoon chili paste

Steps:

  • Score each side of the fish with 3-4 small shallow cuts.
  • Combine all marinade ingredients and marinate the fish for at least an hour or up to overnight.
  • Prepare the glaze: Place the oil and garlic in a small saucepan, place on medium heat.
  • Simmer until garlic begins to turn golden.
  • Strain and let cool.
  • In another small pot, combine sugar and vinegar, bring to a boil, and simmer for one minute.
  • Add fish sauce, ginger, bell pepper, chili paste, and 3 Tbsp of the garlic oil.
  • Cook together for 3-5 minutes until sauce reduces slightly.
  • Making sure your grill is clean and well-lubricated with plenty of vegetable oil (or using a specially designed fish grilling basket), grill fish over medium heat, approximately 7 minutes per side or until flesh is just opaque at the bone.
  • Plate fish and spoon sauce over each fish.
  • One small fish is a perfect entrée for one person, share larger fish between two people.
  • Serves 4.

This recipe was easy to follow and the fish turned out great! I used a tilapia and it was cooked perfectly. The glaze was also very tasty. I would definitely recommend this recipe.
