Saba Teriyaki is a delightful twist on the traditional Japanese teriyaki dish, using mackerel instead of the usual chicken or beef. To make this dish, you will need Saba fillets, soy sauce, mirin, sake, sugar, garlic, and ginger. Start by preparing the teriyaki sauce by combining soy sauce, mirin, sake, sugar, minced garlic, and grated ginger in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat and cook until the sauce thickens slightly. In the meantime, grill or pan-fry the Saba fillets until they are cooked through and have a nice char. Once the fish is cooked, brush the teriyaki sauce over the fillets and continue cooking for a minute or two, allowing the sauce to caramelize. Serve the Saba Teriyaki with steamed rice and steamed vegetables for a complete and satisfying meal. The combination of the sweet and savory teriyaki sauce with the rich and flavorful mackerel is simply irresistible.
