Fish in soy sauce is baked in the oven or on the grill. Asian seasoning from soybeans is the simplest marinade for fish, which, in combination with the sauce, acquires a rich taste and juiciness. Any sea fish is suitable for this dish: pink salmon, mackerel, trout, salmon, etc. The marinade is prepared "in a hurry" and does not require special skills.

Fish in soy sauce - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I use a different type of fish for this recipe?

Yes! This recipe works well with white fish like cod, tilapia, or halibut. Just adjust cooking time slightly for thicker or thinner cuts.

What can I substitute for soy sauce if I'm avoiding gluten?

Use tamari or coconut aminos for a gluten-free option. Both provide a similar umami flavor to soy sauce.

How long can I store leftovers in the fridge?

Cooked fish keeps for 2-3 days in an airtight container. The uncooked marinade can be refrigerated for up to 2 days before using.

Can I make this recipe vegetarian?

For a vegetarian version, try marinating and baking firm tofu or portobello mushrooms using the same method and timing.

What sides pair well with this dish?

Serve with steamed rice, roasted veggies, or a crisp salad. The savory sauce also pairs nicely with mashed potatoes.

Can I cook this without foil?

Yes, use a baking dish covered with parchment paper or simply grease the dish well to prevent sticking.

How do I know when the fish is fully cooked?

The fish should flake easily with a fork and reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).

Can I freeze the marinated fish before cooking?

Yes! Freeze the fish in the marinade for up to 1 month. Thaw in the fridge overnight before baking.

What's the best way to reheat leftovers?

Reheat gently in the oven at 300°F (150°C) for 10-15 minutes or until warmed through to keep the fish moist.

Can I make this spicier?

Add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a teaspoon of sriracha to the marinade for extra heat.

Beef lagman is cooked less often than lamb, but still this option has a right to exist. It can be assumed that such a version arose simply from hopelessness - in the case when the first meat was more accessible than the second. By the way, this is us
