Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Marinade

    In a medium bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, Sriracha sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, lime juice, black pepper, and salt until well combined.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Fish

    Place the swai fillets in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the fillets, ensuring they are well coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill or Oven

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. 4

    Cook the Fish

    Remove the swai fillets from the marinade, letting the excess drip off. Grill the fillets for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are opaque and flake easily with a fork. If using the oven, place the fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for about 15-20 minutes.

Serving

  1. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Once cooked, transfer the swai fillets to a serving platter. Sprinkle with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
