Preparation
Cook the rice
Preheat the oven to 450°F. In a medium pot, combine the rice, 1 ½ cups water (double for 4 portions) and a big pinch of salt; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer, 14 to 16 min., until the rice is tender and the water has been absorbed. Remove from the heat and let sit, covered, for 5 min. Fluff the rice.
Mise en place
Meanwhile, remove the bottom ½ inch of the gai lan stems; halve crosswise. Tear the mushrooms into 1-inch pieces. Grate the garlic. Juice the lime.
Make the glaze
In a small bowl, combine the miso, honey, mirin, ½ the garlic, ½ the ginger and ½ the lime juice.
Bake the cod
Pat the cod dry with paper towel. Arrange on a lined sheet pan and brush with the glaze. Bake, 8 to 10 min., until partially cooked. Switch the oven to broil, 2 to 3 min., until the glaze has browned and the cod* is cooked through.
Cook the vegetables
Meanwhile, in a large pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium. Add the remaining garlic and ginger. Sauté, 30 sec. to 1 min., until fragrant. Add the gai lan, mushrooms and S&P. Sauté, 2 to 3 min., until beginning to soften. Add the soy sauce, remaining lime juice and 1 tbsp water (double for 4 portions). Cook, partially covered, 2 to 3 min., until tender; season with S&P.
Plate your dish
Divide the rice, cod and vegetables between your plates. Bon appétit!
