Grilled Mackerel with Japanese Flavors
Ingredients
  • 4 mackerel fillets
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup mirin (Japanese sweet wine)
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1/2 tablespoon grated fresh ginger root
Instructions
1
Clean and prepare the fish fillets by gently washing them under cold running water, then using a clean towel to dry them thoroughly.
2
Combine the marinade ingredients - soy sauce, mirin, sugar, and grated ginger - in a medium-sized container. Place the fish fillets inside this marinade mixture, ensuring they are fully coated, and allow them to soak in the flavors for at least 20 minutes.
3
Heat up your oven broiler or outdoor grill to its highest temperature setting. Place the fish fillets on the preheated broiler or grill, periodically brushing them with the remaining marinade to keep them moist and flavorful. Continue cooking until the fish becomes tender and flakes easily with a fork, taking around 5 to 8 minutes.
