miso magic sea bass

👨‍🍳 Chefy Tip: Brush the fillets twice — once before they go in, once 90 seconds under the broiler. When the edges of the glaze start to darken before the fish looks done, pull it — the carryover heat finishes the fish without burning the miso. 🍳 Chefy Tip: never leave the broiler unattended.
