Ingredients
- 4 pieces fresh trout fillets
- 2 tablespoons fresh ginger
- 3 pieces garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 stalks green onions
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 sheets aluminum foil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Peel the ginger and finely grate it. Finely mince the garlic cloves. Thinly slice the green onions, keeping the white and green parts separate.
Step 3
In a small bowl, mix the grated ginger, minced garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Step 4
Rinse and pat dry the trout fillets with a paper towel. Place each fillet on an individual sheet of aluminum foil.
Step 5
Drizzle the marinade evenly over each trout fillet. Sprinkle the white parts of the green onions on top of the fish.
Step 6
Seal each piece of trout by folding the aluminum foil into packets, ensuring the edges are tightly sealed to trap the steam.
Step 7
Place the foil packets on a baking sheet and put them into the preheated oven. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Step 8
Carefully open the foil packets (be cautious of the hot steam) and transfer the fish to serving plates.
Step 9
Garnish with the green parts of the sliced green onions and serve immediately. Optionally, pair with steamed rice or sautéed vegetables for a complete meal.
