Ingredients | Measures |
---|---|
Fresh ginger root, grated | 1 tablespoon |
Garlic clove, minced | 1 |
Honey | 1 tablespoon |
Soy sauce | 2 tablespoons |
Orange juice | 2 tablespoons |

- Directions
- Mix together ginger, garlic, honey, soy sauce, and orange juice. Place fish and marinade into a resealable plastic bag. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to overnight.
- Preheat broiler (on low setting if your broiler has an option) and position the oven rack about 4 inches below the heat.
- Remove fish from bag, reserving marinade, and place skin-side up on a broiling rack coated with nonstick cooking spray. Broil fish for about 2 minutes, then remove from oven and pull the skin off with tongs. Baste with marinade and return to oven. After another 2-3 minutes, turn fish over and broil another 4-5 minutes. Fish will flake easily when done.
- When fish is done, garnish with the green onion and enjoy!
