How to Make Apple Ginger Pan Sauce For Cod

  1. In a liquid measuring cup, whisk together 1/4 cup apple juice, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the apple ginger mixture and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium and cook until the sauce has reduced by half, about 3-5 minutes.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of water until smooth. Slowly whisk the cornstarch slurry into the simmering sauce. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens, about 1 minute.
  4. Place 2 (4-6 ounce) frozen cod fillets in the skillet. Pour the apple ginger sauce over the cod, cover, and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  5. Carefully flip the cod fillets and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until both sides are cooked and the fish is opaque throughout.
  6. Serve immediately over rice with asparagus, or on a bagel with tartar sauce, onion, and tomato. Enjoy!
