Serves 4
Ingredients:
- 1.5 lbs steelhead fillet, cut into 4 portions
- ½ cup fresh cranberries
- ½ cup orange juice
- 2 garlic cloves, finely minced
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ⅓ cup soy sauce
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Directions:
-
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease a baking dish.
-
Make the cranberry glaze: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the cranberries, orange juice, garlic, brown sugar, soy sauce, and a pinch of black pepper. Simmer for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries burst and the sauce thickens. Remove from heat and set aside.
-
Prepare the fish: Season the steelhead fillets with salt and black pepper. Place them on the prepared baking sheet or dish.
-
Glaze and bake: Spoon the cranberry sauce generously over each fillet. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
-
Serve and enjoy: Remove from the oven and serve warm with a fresh side salad or rice pilaf.
