Ingredients

  • 4 pieces (6 oz each) Fish fillets (salmon, cod, or tilapia)
  • 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Honey
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger (grated)
  • 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Chopped parsley (optional garnish)
  • 1 as needed Non-stick cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, Dijon mustard, grated ginger, minced garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil to create the glaze.

Step 2

Season the fish fillets on both sides with salt and black pepper.

Step 3

Brush half of the glaze onto the fish fillets, ensuring they are evenly coated. Reserve the other half of the glaze for basting during grilling.

Step 4

Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly coat the grates with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.

Step 5

Place the fish fillets on the grill, skin-side down if applicable. Allow them to cook undisturbed for 3-4 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets.

Step 6

Carefully flip the fish using a spatula and brush them with the remaining glaze. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

Step 7

Remove the fish from the grill and let it rest for 2 minutes before serving.

Step 8

Garnish the fish with chopped parsley, if desired, and serve immediately with your favorite sides.
