MISO-GLAZED FISH
Most recipes for miso-glazed fish are for salmon, because fatty fish are well suited for this preparation and salmon is particularly delicious. Nobu Matsuhisa is known for his miso-marinated black cod, which he marinates for two to three days. I can't imagine finding fish fresh enough to marinate for that long, so in my recipe I marinate the fish for a few hours before broiling and then finishing, if necessary, in the oven. The marinade is based on the Matsuhisa recipe, but I've reduced the sugar considerably.

Steps:
- Combine the mirin and sake in the smallest saucepan you have and bring to a boil over high heat. Boil 20 seconds, taking care not to boil off much of the liquid, then turn the heat to low and stir in the miso and the sugar. Whisk over medium heat without letting the mixture boil until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from the heat and whisk in the sesame oil. Allow to cool. Transfer to a wide glass or stainless steel bowl or baking dish.
- Pat the fish fillets dry and brush or rub on both sides with the marinade, then place them in the baking dish and turn them over a few times in the marinade remaining in the dish. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate for 2 to 3 hours, or for up to a day.
- Light the broiler or prepare a grill. Line a sheet pan with foil and oil the foil. Tap each fillet against the sides of the bowl or dish so excess marinade will slide off. Place skin side up on the baking sheet if broiling.
- Place the fish skin side down on the grill, or skin side up under the broiler, about 6 inches from the heat. Broil or grill for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until the surface browns and blackens in spots. If necessary (this will depend on the thickness of the fillets) finish in a 400-degree oven, for about 5 minutes, until the fish is opaque and can be pulled apart easily with a fork.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In a small skillet cook butter over moderate heat until it begins to brown and stir in shallot. Cook shallot until softened but not browned, about 2 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and stir in lemon juice.
- In a small bowl stir together parsley, capers, lemon pulp, and zest.
- Put fish fillets in a jelly-roll pan, skin sides down, and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Brush fillets with butter mixture and sprinkle with parsley mixture. Bake fillets in middle of oven until just cooked through, about 12 minutes, and garnish with lemon slices.
Tips:
- Choose the right fish: Select a fresh, firm red snapper fillet. Look for fish that is bright in color and has a mild, sweet smell.
- Prepare the marinade: Combine soy sauce, mirin, sake, and brown sugar in a bowl. Whisk until the sugar dissolves. Add the red snapper fillets and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Cook the fish: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and swirl to melt. Add the red snapper fillets and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Remove the fish from the skillet and set aside.
- Make the miso brown butter sauce: Add the miso paste, garlic, and ginger to the skillet. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the miso paste is melted and fragrant. Add the white wine and cook for 1 minute, or until the wine has reduced by half. Add the heavy cream and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the fish: Place the red snapper fillets on a plate and spoon the miso brown butter sauce over top. Garnish with green onions and serve immediately.
