Kanpachi Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Marinate the Kanpachi

    In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, mirin, sesame oil, lime juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, and chili flakes. Place the Kanpachi fillet in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill the Kanpachi

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the Kanpachi from the marinade and let excess marinade drip off. Grill the fillet for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and flaky.

  3. 3

    Garnish and Serve

    Transfer the grilled Kanpachi to a serving platter. Garnish with sliced green onions and chopped cilantro. Serve immediately with extra lime wedges on the side.
