Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Marinate the Fish

    In a bowl, combine soy sauce, mirin, sesame oil, grated ginger, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Add the Ishidai fillet and coat well. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare for Cooking

    Preheat the grill or a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. If using a grill, make sure to oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.

  3. 3

    Cook the Fish

    Remove the fish from the marinade and let excess marinade drip off. Grill or pan-sear the fish for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

  4. 4

    Garnish and Serve

    Transfer the cooked Ishidai to a serving platter and sprinkle with chopped green onions. Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
