Miso-marinated cod

Lean and mild-flavored cod pairs wonderfully with the assertive flavor of miso in this easy dinner. The fish marinated for 30 minutes to an hour, absorbing a flavorful, aromatic savory-sweet mix of ingredients. We opted for white miso in this recipe because of its mellower, slightly sweet flavor. (If you want a more intensely flavored miso, pick up a red or brown one.) It then cooks quickly under the high heat of the broiler, developing a browned crust while becoming tender. Serve the cod with steamed broccoli or snow peas tossed with lemon zest and juice and salt and pepper to taste.
