- Ready In:
- 30mins
- Ingredients:
- 5
- Serves:
-
2
ingredients
- 2 black cod steaks
- 2 teaspoons melted butter
- 1⁄2 cup teriyaki marinade
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- black pepper
directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees (if you're going to bake the steaks).
- Mix together the melted butter, marinade, garlic, and a few dashes of pepper.
- Pour the mixture over cod steaks in a shallow glass dish, and let marinate for at least 20 minutes.
- To bake: bake in a casserole or baking dish in the marinade at 350 for about 20-30 minutes or until fish flakes easily.
- To grill: cook on a grill pan on your stove, turning carefully once, until fish flakes easily, about 15 to 20 minutes, brushing occasionally with marinade. I've also done it using a Foreman grill, brushing occasionally with marinade, until it flaked easily; it can take anywhere between 10-15 minutes, depending on your Foreman.
- Serve with steamed white rice, a little of the juices poured over.

This is, hands down, THE BEST fish recipe in the universe. No, seriously, I'm not exaggerating. We had never bought black cod before but found it at a local seafood co. and decided to try it. The fish itself is fabulous because of its flavor and tenderness, and this recipe just suits it to a T. We usually try to marinate for 12-24 hours to really let the flavors soak in. Everyone we've made it for raves about it! Thank you so much!

I followed this recipe exactly to prepare the black cod for dinner guests. When I took the fish out of the oven in 25 minutes, it had literally turned to a pureed mush. Needless to say, I was mortified. Perhaps the cooking time is too long in this recipe, or something else is wrong, but my meal was a disaster. Luckily, my local market was still open and I had to drop everything and run to the store to salvage the dinner party.

<p>It's simply this: I love to cook! :) <br /><br />I've been hanging out on the internet since the early days and have collected loads of recipes. I've tried to keep the best of them (and often the more unusual) and look forward to sharing them with you, here. <br /><br />I am proud to say that I have several family members who are also on RecipeZaar! <br /><br />My husband, here as <a href=http://www.recipezaar.com/member/39857>Steingrim</a>, is an excellent cook. He rarely uses recipes, though, so often after he's made dinner I sit down at the computer and talk him through how he made the dishes so that I can get it down on paper. Some of these recipes are in his account, some of them in mine - he rarely uses his account, though, so we'll probably usually post them to mine in the future. <br /><br />My sister <a href=http://www.recipezaar.com/member/65957>Cathy is here as cxstitcher</a> and <a href=http://www.recipezaar.com/member/62727>my mom is Juliesmom</a> - say hi to them, eh? <br /><br />Our <a href=http://www.recipezaar.com/member/379862>friend Darrell is here as Uncle Dobo</a>, too! I've been typing in his recipes for him and entering them on R'Zaar. We're hoping that his sisters will soon show up with their own accounts, as well. :) <br /><br />I collect cookbooks (to slow myself down I've limited myself to purchasing them at thrift stores, although I occasionally buy an especially good one at full price), and - yes, I admit it - I love FoodTV. My favorite chefs on the Food Network are Alton Brown, Rachel Ray, Mario Batali, and Giada De Laurentiis. I'm not fond over fakey, over-enthusiastic performance chefs... Emeril drives me up the wall. I appreciate honesty. Of non-celebrity chefs, I've gotta say that that the greatest influences on my cooking have been my mother, Julia Child, and my cooking instructor Chef Gabriel Claycamp at Seattle's Culinary Communion. <br /><br />In the last couple of years I've been typing up all the recipes my grandparents and my mother collected over the years, and am posting them here. Some of them are quite nostalgic and are higher in fat and processed ingredients than recipes I normally collect, but it's really neat to see the different kinds of foods they were interested in... to see them either typewritten oh-so-carefully by my grandfather, in my grandmother's spidery handwriting, or - in some cases - written by my mother years ago in fountain pen ink. It's like time travel. <br /><br />Cooking peeve: food/cooking snobbery. <br /><br />Regarding my black and white icon (which may or may not be the one I'm currently using): it the sea-dragon tattoo that is on the inside of my right ankle. It's also my personal logo.</p>
