Ingredients Needed
- 4 fish fillets (such as salmon or cod)
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 cup sliced carrots
- 1 bell pepper, sliced
- 1 onion, sliced
- 2 cups snap peas
- 1 cup shiitake mushrooms
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup mirin (sweet rice wine)
- 2 tablespoons honey or sugar
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- Cooked rice for serving
Preparation Steps
Start by preparing the teriyaki sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, mirin, honey, garlic, and ginger. Set aside.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add the fish fillets and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through. Remove the fish and set aside.
In the same pan, add more oil if needed and sauté the onions, carrots, and bell peppers for 5 minutes until they start to soften. Add the broccoli, snap peas, and shiitake mushrooms, cooking for another 3-4 minutes.
Pour the teriyaki sauce over the vegetables and stir well. Return the cooked fish to the pan, spooning some sauce over the fillets. Cover and simmer for 5 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the hot pot over steamed rice for a complete meal. Garnish with chopped green onions or sesame seeds if desired. This dish pairs well with a side of miso soup or a light salad.
Tips for Success
- Use fresh fish for the best flavor and texture.
- Adjust the sweetness of the sauce according to your taste.
- Feel free to add other vegetables like bok choy or bamboo shoots.
- For a spicier version, add a dash of chili flakes or chili oil.
