Hoisin-Glazed Sablefish with Bok Choy

Sablefish, also known as black cod, is among the best sources of heart-friendly omega-3 fatty acids. Here, the fish is combined with bok choy, which contains antioxidants and fiber. The hoisin mixture, brushed on top of the fish before broiling, is essentially a quick barbecue sauce.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 4

Ingredients

2 tablespoons neutral-tasting oil, such as canola or safflower
1 piece (3 inches) fresh ginger, peeled, thinly sliced, and cut into very thin matchsticks
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 head bok choy (1 1/2 pounds), trimmed and sliced crosswise into 1-inch-wide pieces, greens and stalks separated
2 celery stalks, quartered lengthwise and cut crosswise into 2-inch lengths
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 bunch scallions, trimmed and cut into 2-inch lengths
3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon ketchup
1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
4 skinless sablefish fillets (about 5 ounces each)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    In a large saucepan, heat the oil over medium. Add ginger and garlic; cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add bok choy stalks, celery, and 1/2 teaspoon salt; season with pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until crisp-tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Add scallions, and cook, stirring, until wilted, about 3 minutes.

    Step 2

    Heat broiler with rack 4 inches from heat source. Stir together hoisin, ketchup, mustard, and 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice. Place fish on a broiler pan or rimmed baking sheet. Season on both sides with 1/2 teaspoon salt, dividing evenly, and pepper. Brush tops with hoisin mixture. Broil until fish is glazed and opaque throughout, 5 to 7 minutes.

    Step 3

    Add remaining 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice to bok choy greens; spoon onto four plates and top each with a fish fillet. Serve immediately.
