Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, honey, Sriracha sauce, and garlic powder. Whisk these ingredients together until you achieve a smooth, well-blended glaze.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean-up and place the Steelhead fillets on it.
- Using a brush, evenly coat the fillets with the sweet and spicy glaze. Make sure every inch of the fillets is covered to ensure a uniform flavor profile.
- Season the glazed fillets with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes. The fish should be cooked through and should easily flake when prodded with a fork.
- Allow the fish to rest for a few minutes after removing it from the oven. This helps the flavors to settle.
- Garnish your dish with the chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds for added flavor and a pleasing aesthetic touch.
- Serve while hot and pair with a side of steamed jasmine rice or sautéed vegetables for a complete meal.
