I kick up the sweetness quotient by adding honey and thin the sauce with lime juice for a bit of tang.

This quick glaze turns a simple piece of grilled or sautéed fish into something special. Brush it on as soon as the fish is cooked.

Makes 1/4 cup

Ingredients

• 2 Tbsp hoisin sauce
• Juice of 1/2 lime
• 1 tsp honey
• 1 small garlic clove, minced or put through a press
• 1 Tbsp minced fresh cilantro
• Coarse salt

Directions

Stir the hoisin, lime juice, honey, garlic, and cilantro together in a small bowl. Season with salt.

This can sit on the counter for a couple of hours; or store it, covered, in the refrigerator for 3 days.
