- 1/4 cup
- Honey
- 2 tablespoons
- Fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon, grated
- Garlic
- 2 cloves, minced

- Green onions

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, grated ginger, minced garlic, lime juice, vegetable oil, salt, and black pepper until well combined. This will be your flavorful glaze.
- Place the steelhead trout fillets on the prepared baking sheet, skin-side down.
- Generously brush the ginger soy glaze over the fillets, ensuring they are well-coated. Reserve some glaze for later.
- Bake the steelhead trout in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- Once cooked, remove the trout from the oven and brush the fillets with the remaining glaze for an extra burst of flavor.
- Garnish with sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds before serving.
- Enjoy your Steelhead Trout with Ginger Soy Glaze hot, perhaps accompanied by steamed rice or stir-fried vegetables for a complete meal.
Tips
- For added depth, consider marinating the trout in the glaze for 30 minutes before baking.
- Feel free to substitute the steelhead trout with salmon if preferred, as they share similar flavor profiles.
- Serve with a side of jasmine rice and sautéed bok choy for a complete Asian-inspired meal.
