Cod With Orange Glaze & Snap Peas.

This recipe is courtesy of Ninja Cooking System.  I'd like to share it as this is my reference when I cooked the Cod with Lemon Glaze & Green Beans (Steam Oven Baking using a Ninja Cooking System).

I wanted to follow all the ingredients of this Cod with Orange Glaze & Snap Peas recipe, orange and snap peas are not available at home when I make my dish.  so I made use of other ingredients like lemon and green beans (string beans) instead.  It turned our delicious especially the lemon sauce .

Cod is firm, white fish that stands up beautifully to the gingered orange glaze.  The sauce reduces to a glaze in bottom of pot while sugar snap peas steam on rack, creating especially delicious dinner.

Prep: 10 minutes     Cook: 20 minutes     Servings: 4

Ingredients:
2 teaspoon canola oil
1 teaspoon ground ginger
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 bunch green onions, sliced
2/3 cup orange juice
1/3 cup water
2 teaspoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 tbsp sugar
4 frozen uncooked cod fillets, 1" think
2 cups sugar snap peas
Directions:
1.  Pour oil into pot. SET to STOVETOP HIGH and heat oil.  Add ginger, garlic, onions, HALF of spring onions to pot.  Cook uncovered 3 minutes or until garlic is tender, stirring occasionally.
2.  Stir orange juice, water, soy sauce, and sugar into pot.  Place frozen fish into the multi-purpose pan..  Place roasting rack into pot..  Set OVEN to 325 degrees F for 15 minutes.  Cover and cook for 5 minutes.
3.  Place snap peas on top of fish.  Cover and cook 5 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with fork and snap peas are tender-crisp, checking for doneness after 3 minutes of cooking time.  Serve fish and snap peas with orange sauce and sprinkle with remaining green onions.  

NOTE: Ninja Serving Tip:
Frozen cod comes in different weights and thickness.  For thicker fish, add an additional 1/2 cup water or orange juice to the glaze and add 2 to 4 minutes to the cooking time.
