Triple-Citrus Ginger Black Cod
- 1/2 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- Zest of 1 orange
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 1/2 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
- Pinch of cayenne
- 4 3.5-ounce black cod fillets, pinbones removed
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley or mint
- In a small bowl or glass measuring cup, whisk together the orange juice, lime juice, lemon juice, olive oil, orange zest, lemon zest, ginger, and cayenne.
- Place the cod in a baking dish and season each piece with 1/8 teaspoon of the salt.
- Pour half of the orange juice mixture over the cod and turn to coat well.
- Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 400F.
- Remove the cod from the refrigerator, uncover, and add 2 tablespoons of water to the bottom of the dish.
- Bake just until the fillets are tender and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of each fillet registers 137F; it will take 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets.
- Meanwhile, combine the remaining orange juice mixture and the mustard in a small saucepan over medium heat and simmer until the liquid is reduced by half.
- Pour the reduction over the fillets, sprinkle with the parsley, and serve immediately.
- This versatile, delicious marinade is great with other fish, such as sea bass, salmon, and halibut.
- These flavors also pair nicely with Warm Napa Cabbage Slaw (page 92).
- You can also cook the fish on a grill.
- Wipe the marinade off the fillets and rub them with 1 teaspoon of light sesame oil.
- Grill over low, even heat for about 4 minutes per side, until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily and the center of each fillet registers 137F.
- Store tightly wrapped in an airtight container in the refrigerator
- for 1 to 2 days.
