No one will even know this recipe took you 5 minutes to throw together – it’s just that good! This has to be one of the easiest cod dishes you are ever going to make! You absolutely cannot mess this up, just don’t overcook it. This will be an instant hit with your family and friends. I am all about presentation, so I like to plate it over a couscous or Japanese rice. You can check out my recipe for Garlic-Infused Rice which will go great with this Miso Glazed Cod recipe. Enjoy!

Sounds delicious. For those using frozen cod: there’s a good chance you’ll mess it up if you’re trying the fast defrost method so plan ahead and defrost over night in the fridge. Supermarkets generally have fresh cod loins.
