Recipe

Ingredients

2 6oz Black Cod fillets
1 c pure maple syrup
1/4 c teriyaki sauce
1/2 c white wine vinegar (divided)
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp cracked black pepper
salt to taste
1 medium white onion
4 medium bell peppers (any assortment of colors)

Fish

Mix the maple syrup, teriyaki, and 1/4 cup of the white wine vinegar and check for saltiness and tartness. Tweak as desired with additional syrup, teriyaki or vinegar. The yield is approximately 2 cups of marinade.

Place the fillets and marinade in an air-tight sealable container and allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes. Reserve remaining marinade.

After marinating, place the fillets on an oiled baking sheet or shallow pan. Cover the fillets with a generous sprinkling of cracked black pepper, and pour approximately 1/2 of the reserved marinade over them.

Broil approximately 6 inches from heat until the fish flakes easily, about 12-14 minutes.

Yields 2 servings

Pepper Salad

Rough chop the onion and bell peppers, and toss olive oil and the remaining 1/2 cup of white wine vinegar. Allow to stand at least 30 minutes before serving.

Yields approximately 2 - 3 servings.
