Miso Butter & Panko-Crusted Cod with Ponzu Mayo, Asparagus & Potatoes

Step 1

1 Prepare the ingredients & make the miso butter Remove the butter from the refrigerator to soften. Preheat the oven to 450°F. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Snap off and discard the tough, woody stem ends of the asparagus. Cut the potatoes into 1/2-inch rounds. Halve the lime crosswise. Peel the ginger; using a zester or the small side of a box grater, finely grate to get 1 teaspoon (you may have extra). Peel 1 clove of garlic; using a zester or the small side of a box grater, finely grate into a paste. In a bowl, combine the softened butter, sugar, miso paste, grated ginger, garlic paste, and the juice of 1 lime half. Season with salt and pepper. Using a fork, mash until thoroughly combined.

Step 2

2 Roast the potatoes Line two sheet pans with foil. Transfer the potato rounds to one sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat and arrange in an even layer. Roast 19 to 21 minutes, or until lightly browned and tender when pierced with a fork. Remove from the oven.

Step 3

3 Roast the fish & asparagus Meanwhile, lightly oil one side of the remaining sheet pan. Pat the fish dry with paper towels; season with salt and pepper on both sides. Transfer to the oiled portion of the sheet pan. Evenly spread the miso butter onto the fish, then top with the breadcrumbs (pressing lightly to adhere). Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the asparagus to the other side of the sheet pan; drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat and arrange in an even layer. Roast 8 to 10 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender when pierced with a fork and the fish is cooked though.* Remove from the oven.
