Grilled Black Cod with White Wine, Lime, and Sriracha Sauce #recipe from Linda Wiken, author

I love Alaska Black Cod. Living inland, I buy it frozen but it never fails to turn out flaky and moist. I'm always keen to try different marinades and sauces though so this is one I tweeked from the newspaper and it's a keeper.

I will say up front that next time I'll amp up the heat by adding more Sriracha sauce or maybe add some chili flakes along with it. And, I used basil olive oil to give the flavor an extra kick. However, feel free to use a plain virgin olive oil and add whatever herbs you prefer.

Your cod filet needs to sit in the marinade for at least half-an-hour, so keep that in mind. Also, this is a recipe for one; increase the ingredients as required for more portions.

What you'll need:

1 black cod filet
3/4 tsp. fresh lime juice
3/4 tsp. white wine
3/4 tsp. basil virgin olive oil
1/4 tsp. Sriracha sauce
pinch of sea salt
pinch of fresh ground pepper



What to do:

Start by squeezing lime juice then combine it with white wine, olive oil, Sriracha Sauce, salt and pepper. Place in a plastic bag along with the cod filet. Seal the bag and let the filet sit in the marinade for at least 1/2 hour.

Remove filet and discard ingredients. Place the cod filet on a piece of aluminum foil and barbecue for at least 12 min. The fish should be flaky when ready.

Serve with wedges of lime and some more of that chilled white wine.

  1. Nice! I'll have to add this to my Try-Me list. I haven't seen black cod at our market, but these days nobody knows what will show up from week to week (including the person who sells the fish!). Plenty of regular cod, though--after all, this is Massachusetts.

  3. Cod is so eater friendly.
    When you say "grill", do you mean put the fish which is on foil onto the BBQ grill?

  5. Linda, I never would have thought to put the fish on foil to barbecue. I set mine directly on (with lots of oil) and yes, some sticks, but I do love the flavor of barbecued fish! Nice recipe. ~ Daryl
