About

I could eat every day if I could.  Breaking from my comfort zone, I have some ginger that I needed to use and came up with this marinate concoction. I love to blend ginger and honey, the two are so powerfully delicious when combined. Staying with an Asian theme, played with some of my favorite flavors for the marinate: rice vinegar, and soy sauce. I just had fun.
Do not over marinate the fish, longer than 1 hour, 30 minutes is just perfect. No need to put in in the refrigerator, however, do baste it and turn it occasionally.
