Cooking Seafood at Home
Pollock is a mild white fish used in this recipe. It is a great choice because it absorbs the flavors of the marinade and cooks quickly in the oven.
Accompanying by pickled ginger is also an option to balance the flavors.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Season the Pollock fillets with salt and pepper to taste.
- Heat a little vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the Pollock fillets on both sides until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Meanwhile, prepare the sauce: In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, chopped garlic, and grated ginger.
- Transfer the browned Pollock fillets to a baking tray and pour the sauce over them.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle with chopped scallions and toasted sesame seeds before serving.
- Serve hot and enjoy your Taiwanese-style Pollock with its delicious soy ginger sauce!
