Step 1 Prepare the Alaska cod bites
Preheat the oven to 375 F.
Pat the Alaska cod dry and cut each fillet into 1” cubes.
Transfer the Alaska cod bites to a bowl and season lightly with salt & pepper. Pour in the soy sauce and sesame oil and let it marinate for 15 minutes.
After 15 minutes, pour the sesame seeds onto a plate and dip each piece of Alaska cod into the seeds to coat all sides.
Layer the bites on a parchment lined baking tray and spray them with cooking spray.
Bake for 15-18 minutes, until golden brown.
