ROASTED SALMON WITH MISO RICE AND GINGER-SCALLION VINAIGRETTE
This simple weeknight meal makes great use of pantry staples to create complex flavors with minimal work. Miso is often used to flavor soups or sauces, and here, it is added to raw rice before cooking, which results in a delightfully sticky, savory steamed rice. Fragrant and nutty basmati is called for, but any long-grain rice will work. Shredded cabbage brings freshness and crunch to the finished dish, but use whatever crispy vegetable you have on hand: shredded brussels sprouts, carrots, snap peas, radishes and iceberg lettuce are all great options. For a heftier meal, add some canned chickpeas, white beans or black beans. To finish, the vibrant tang of the bright ginger-scallion vinaigrette balances the richness of the roasted salmon.

Tips:
- Use fresh tilapia fillets. Tilapia is a mild-flavored fish that takes well to marinades and sauces. Fresh tilapia fillets should be firm to the touch and have a slightly sweet smell.
- Make sure the miso paste is well dissolved. Miso paste can be quite thick, so it's important to whisk it into the marinade until it is completely dissolved. This will help to ensure that the fish is evenly coated in the marinade.
- Don't overcook the fish. Tilapia is a delicate fish that cooks quickly. Overcooking will make the fish dry and tough.
- Serve the fish immediately. Tilapia is best served hot and fresh out of the oven or grill.
Conclusion:
Miso-glazed tilapia is a delicious and easy-to-make weeknight meal. The miso marinade infuses the fish with a savory, slightly sweet flavor, while the scallions add a bright, fresh note. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.Here are some additional tips for making miso-glazed tilapia:
- If you don't have white miso paste, you can use red miso paste instead. Red miso paste has a stronger flavor, so you may want to use less of it.
- You can also add other vegetables to the marinade, such as grated ginger, minced garlic, or chopped green onions.
- If you're grilling the fish, make sure to preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Cook the fish for 4-5 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through.
- Serve the fish with your favorite sides, such as rice, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
