Preparation
Step 1
Blend together ginger, garlic, mirin, vinegar, soy sauce, molasses and hot sauce, if using, in a bowl. Pour into a dish large enough to contain the fish and submerge fillets, flesh side down. Refrigerate for 6 to 8 hours.
Pour marinade into a small saucepan and simmer over medium-high heat until thick and syrupy, 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching.
Meanwhile adjust oven rack to within 6 inches of broiler and heat broiler. Broil fish on a rimmed baking sheet until just opaque, about 4 minutes. Brush fish with the reduced marinade and cook until fish is set and glossy, 3 to 5 minutes longer. Brush fish with any remaining sauce and serve topped with green onions.
Serve with rice pilaf, sauteed green beans, and a pinot noir.
