Servings: 4

Ingredients

Steelhead trout fillets (4 (6 ounce) fillets)
Olive oil (2 tablespoons)
Lime juice (2 tablespoons, divided)
Garlic powder (1 teaspoon)
Salt (1/2 teaspoon, divided)
Black pepper (1/2 teaspoon)
Avocado (1, diced)
Tomato (1, diced)
Red onion (1/4 cup, finely chopped)
Cilantro (2 tablespoons, finely chopped)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place the Steelhead trout fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of lime juice. Sprinkle evenly with garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and black pepper.
Bake the fillets in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
While the fish is baking, prepare the avocado salsa. In a medium bowl, combine the diced avocado, tomato, red onion, cilantro, the remaining 1 tablespoon of lime juice, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Stir gently until well combined.
Once the fish is baked, allow it to cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve each fillet with a generous spoonful of the vibrant avocado salsa on top. Enjoy your Pacific getaway!
