Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lbs cod loin
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons sriracha
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 1/2 cups bread crumbs
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons butter (melted)
  • Sauce
  • 2 tablespoons sambal oeleck
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons soy sauce

Preparation

Step 1

Stir all the sauce ingredients together. Set aside.

Whisk the sriracha into the egg and pour onto a small plate. Put the flour onto another plate. Mix the breadcrumbs with the butter and put onto a third plate.

Put a rack onto a baking sheet and preheat oven to 500°F. Chop the cod loin into large chunks that will take 2 or 3 bites to eat. One by one, lightly coat the loin in the flour, then the egg mixture, and finally the breadcrumbs, making sure to press the breadcrumbs into the cod and shake off any excess. Place the cod onto the rack and repeat with the rest of the fish.

Bake the cod for 8 minutes. Remove from oven and flip them. Cook another 6-8 minutes until lightly browned and cooked through.

Serve with the sauce.
