Instructions

  1. 1 Make marinade: Whisk together miso, sugar, sake, and mirin in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until marinade has reduced, about 45 minutes. Transfer marinade to a shallow dish and cool completely, 30 minutes to 1 hour. Place butterfish in marinade and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
  2. 2 Make beurre blanc: Combine vinegar, wine, shallot, bay leaf, and peppercorns in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until only about 1 tablespoon liquid remain, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in cream and simmer until mixture is reduced by half, 2 to 3 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high and rapidly whisk in butter pieces, one at a time, until beurre blanc is smooth and thickened. Strain beurre blanc through a mesh strainer to remove spices.
  3. 3 Make lemon sauce: Stir lemon juice into beurre blanc until lemon sauce is evenly mixed; fold in parsley.
  4. 4 Make sweet soy sauce: Combine soy sauce and sugar in a saucepan over low heat; cook and stir until sugar is dissolved and mixture has reduced to 1 cup, 15 to 20 minutes.
  5. 5 Heat a skillet over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove butterfish from marinade, discarding unused marinade. Cook butterfish in the hot skillet until fish flakes easily with a fork, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer butterfish to a warm plate; drizzle lemon sauce and sweet soy sauce around fish.

Instructions

  1. 1 Whisk soy sauce, mirin, olive oil, honey, sesame oil, garlic powder, ginger, lemon juice, and Worcestershire sauce together in a bowl. Transfer 1/4 of the marinade to a small bowl and refrigerate until ready to use.
  2. 2 Place remaining marinade in a zip-top bag and add chicken. Marinate in the refrigerator for 8 hours, or overnight.
  3. 3 Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove chicken from the refrigerator.
  4. 4 Combine bell peppers, onion, and zucchini in a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and toss to coat.
  5. 5 Make the kabobs by alternating chicken with bell peppers, pineapple, onion, and zucchini. Drizzle some of the sauce from the zip-top bag onto the kabobs.
  6. 6 Cook on the preheated grill, turning every few minutes and drizzling any remaining sauce from the bag over top, until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 15 to 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  7. 7 About 10 minutes before the skewers are done, mix cold water and cornstarch in a small bowl. Put the 1/4 cup reserved marinade in a small saucepan over medium heat. When hot, add cornstarch-water mixture and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring often, until sauce thickens, 7 to 8 minutes.
  8. 8 Place kabobs on a tray and drizzle with thickened teriyaki sauce. Sprinkle toasted sesame seeds on top.
