Pan-Seared Black Cod with Miso Glaze: An Indulgent Expensive Fish Recipe

Instructions:

1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together miso paste, mirin, sake, brown sugar, and soy sauce until smooth.
2. Pat the black cod fillets dry with paper towels and season lightly with salt and pepper.
3. Brush the miso glaze generously over each fillet and let marinate for at least 30 minutes.
4. Heat a non-stick sauté pan over medium-high heat and add vegetable oil.
5. Once the oil is shimmering, add the marinated black cod fillets, miso side down, and sear for about 4-5 minutes until golden brown.
6. Flip fillets with tongs and sear the other side for an additional 2-3 minutes, until cooked through.
7. Plate the black cod fillets, drizzling any remaining glaze over the top, and serve with lime wedges.
