Categories     Seafood     Fish

Time 10h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 ¼ cups white miso
1 cup white sugar
½ cup sake
½ cup mirin (Japanese sweet wine)
4 (6 ounce) fillets butterfish (black cod)
2 ½ teaspoons chopped shallot
1 bay leaf
4 whole black peppercorns
7 teaspoons white wine vinegar
3 ½ teaspoons dry white wine
7 teaspoons heavy whipping cream
1 cup butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
lemon, juiced
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley, or to taste
1 cup soy sauce
1 cup white sugar

Steps:

  • Whisk miso, 1 cup sugar, sake, and mirin together in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until marinade has reduced, about 45 minutes. Transfer marinade to a shallow dish and cool completely, 30 minutes to 1 hour. Place butterfish in the marinade and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
  • Combine shallot, bay leaf, peppercorns, vinegar, and wine in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until only about 1 tablespoon liquid remain, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour cream into mixture and simmer until cream mixture has reduced by half, 2 to 3 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high and rapidly whisk butter pieces, 1 at a time, until beurre blanc is smooth and thickened. Strain beurre blanc through a mesh strainer to remove spices.
  • Stir lemon juice into beurre blanc until lemon sauce is evenly mixed; fold in parsley.
  • Combine soy sauce and 1 cup sugar in a saucepan over low heat; cook and stir until sugar is dissolved and sweet soy sauce has reduced to 1 cup, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Heat a skillet over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove butterfish from marinade, discarding unused marinade. Cook butterfish in the hot skillet until fish flakes easily with a fork, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer butterfish to a warmed plate and drizzle lemon sauce and sweet soy sauce around fish.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality soy sauce. The soy sauce is the main flavoring ingredient in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a soy sauce that is naturally brewed and has a rich, complex flavor.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken is a delicate meat, and it can easily be overcooked. Cook the chicken until it is just cooked through, or it will become dry and tough.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides. Misoyaki chicken is a versatile dish that can be served with a variety of sides. Some popular options include rice, noodles, vegetables, and salad.

Conclusion:

Misoyaki chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is marinated in a flavorful mixture of soy sauce, mirin, sake, and brown sugar, then grilled or pan-fried until it is cooked through. The result is a tender, juicy chicken with a slightly sweet and savory glaze.

This dish is sure to please everyone at your table. It's a great way to introduce your family and friends to Japanese cuisine, or to simply enjoy a delicious and healthy meal.
