Alaskan Black Cod with Hoisin and Ginger Sauces

This elegant Alaskan black cod with hoisin and ginger sauces is a sophisticated choice for those seeking a high-protein dinner that does not compromise on flavour. Known for its buttery texture and rich oil content, black cod—also called sablefish—stands up beautifully to the bold, savoury notes of soy and ginger. The combination of a sweet hoisin glaze and a bright, zesty ginger dressing creates a restaurant-quality finish that enhances the delicate white flakes of the fish.

Ideal for a quick weeknight meal or a casual dinner party, this dish feels remarkably light yet deeply satisfying. The ginger sauce can be prepared a day in advance to save time, making the final assembly incredibly simple. Serve this fragrant seafood dish alongside steamed jasmine rice or stir-fried greens for a nutritiously balanced meal that is packed with healthy fats and lean protein.
