Ingredients for Sheet Pan Ginger-Soy Glazed Mahi Mahi with Roasted Bok Choy

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, grated ginger, minced garlic, honey, rice vinegar, and toasted sesame oil to make the ginger-soy glaze.
Pat the mahi mahi fillets dry with paper towels and season lightly with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Arrange the bok choy halves on one side of the sheet pan; drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss gently to coat evenly.
Place the mahi mahi fillets on the other side of the sheet pan and brush them generously with the ginger-soy glaze.
Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over both the fish and bok choy.
Roast in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and the bok choy edges are tender and slightly caramelized.
Optional: Sprinkle sesame seeds and sliced green onions over the cooked fish and bok choy before serving for extra flavor and texture.
Serve immediately with steamed rice or quinoa for a complete, balanced meal.
