Directions:
For slaw
1. Beginning with the slaw (so it can refrigerate and the flavors can mingle), use a food processor to slice the brussels sprouts and shred the carrots. Place veggies in a large bowl and set aside. In a smaller bowl, add mayonnaise, the fish sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, lime juice, sweet chili sauce, rice vinegar, minced garlic, black pepper, and mint. Whisk to combine the ingredients.
2. Pour dressing over the slaw and mix well, then add sesame seeds and stir again. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
For cod
1. Combine the ingredients for the sauce in a small pan, honey, soy sauce, sweet chili sauce, lime juice, ground ginger, and garlic. Whisk the ingredients together and bring to a low boil, boil for 2 minutes, then remove from heat.
2. Heat another skillet with 1 tbsp olive oil. Season the cod on both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper.
3. Once the pan is hot, add the cod and cook for about 3-4 minutes.
4. Turn the cod over pour sauce on top of cod, while cooking spoon sauce over cod, cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the cod is cooked through.
5. Serve warm with the slaw and quinoa.
