Ingredients

• 4 pieces Tilapia fillets
• 3 tablespoons White miso paste
• 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 2 stalks Green onions (optional, for garnish)
• 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.

Step 2

In a small bowl, prepare the glaze by whisking together the miso paste, freshly grated ginger, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and minced garlic until smooth.

Step 3

Pat the tilapia fillets dry with a paper towel and place them on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 4

Brush the glaze generously onto each fillet, ensuring an even coating across the surface.

Step 5

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the tilapia fillets for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and is cooked through.

Step 6

While the fish cooks, thinly slice the green onions and toast the sesame seeds (if using) in a dry skillet over low heat for 1-2 minutes until lightly golden.

Step 7

Remove the fillets from the oven and transfer them to serving plates. Garnish with sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds, if desired.

Step 8

Serve the Ginger Miso Glazed Tilapia hot, alongside steamed rice, roasted vegetables, or a crisp green salad for a complete meal.
