This is my take on miso-glazed black cod, made famous by Chef Nobu Matsuhisa. In addition to a taste and texture to die for, this is one of the easiest fish recipes of all time. A couple minutes to make the sauce, some brushing, a short wait, and you're broiling. By the way, I don't like to cook both sides — I like the heat to only penetrate from the top down. This makes for a lovely caramelized top and a super juicy interior. Cooking times will vary, but simply broil the fish until the meat flakes easily and the bones pull out with no effort.

Whisk miso, water, mirin, sake, and brown sugar together in a small skillet over medium heat until mixture simmers and thickens slightly, 1 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool completely, 3 to 5 minutes.

Broil in the preheated oven for 5 minutes. Turn the baking sheet 180 degrees and continue broiling until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 5 minutes more. Remove pin bones before serving.

Lemon-Blueberry Blondie Bars
Summer is a time to simply take it easy, and that's so much of what I love about this buttery blondie recipe. Not only does it capitalize on one of the most iconically refreshing summer flavor romances of all (lemon + blueberry forever), but it couldn't be simpler to whip up at a moment's notice. You may very well have every ingredient called for in your kitchen right now, and all you need is 25 hands-on minutes to pull these scrumptious lemon-blueberry bars together. P.S. If you happen to be a real citrus fanatic, consider doubling the glaze recipe for a more generous drizzle.
