Categories Fish Bake

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 pounds Steelhead Trout Fillet
2 tablespoons Honey
2 tablespoons Lemon or Lime Juice
2 tablespoons Olive Oil Extra Virgin
3 tablespoons Soy Sauce Low Sodium
2 tablespoons Dijon Mustard
1 tablespoon Ginger Root paste
2 cloves Garlic minced
1 teaspoon Kosher or Sea Salt
1 teaspoon Pepper ground
1/4 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
1 tablespoon Parsley fresh chopped
1 tablespoon Cilantro fresh chopped
2 tablespoons White Wine

Steps:

Garnish: 2 Tablespoons finely chopped parsley and cilantro
Preparation:
1. In a small bowl, whisk together all the ingredients for the sauce. Set aside.
2. Place the trout in a plastic bag. Cover the fish with sauce and place in the refrigerator for at least one hour and up to 4 hours.
3. Preheat the oven to 450*
4, Transfer the trout, with the sauce into a foil boat, place on a baking sheet and bake at 450*F for about 15-20 minutes.
5. Do not overcook. If you start seeing albumin coming out, that's a good indication that the fish has entered into over-cooked territory and needs to be pulled out immediately.
6. For better browning, place the rack in the second position from the top. You can also turn on the broiler on high about 12 minutes into baking. If the fish is browning too much before it is done, turn off the broiler and move the baking sheet down a couple of positions.
7. Serve with roasted vegetables, salad or rice.
