Fiji : Ginger Fish

CLICK HERE FOR THE RECIPE I USED

I generally try to avoid fish recipes even if I'm doing an island nation because I do not have access to fresh fish. I have access to frozen (and it is expensive here) and I feel like using frozen fish would not do the recipes justice. But, this recipe sounded so good, I bought some frozen cod and gave it a shot.

And I'm glad I did, it was very very good! The soy sauce, garlic, and ginger made it so flavorful! It wasn't hard to make either. The most difficult part of the preparation was making space in the fridge to defrost it. I ate the fish with rice pilaf and a salad and it was a really nice meal.

I will not make it again because my husband hates fish and my cooking it in the oven turned out to be a problem. He had food options and was given the heads-up that I'd be cooking fish but he was quite disappointed that he couldn't use the oven to make a frozen pizza that night because I'd contaminated it with my fish. Did the fish touch any part of the oven? No. It was cooked on a pan, on the center rack and it did not make any sort of mess in the oven. The oven did not smell like fish either, the only lingering aroma was garlic and soy sauce. So, anyway, people are weird sometimes and I probably won't make fish again, unless my husband is out of town. But I would definitely eat this fish again if I could!!!!
