Ingredients
2 salmon or trout fillets (approximately 150g each)
Sesame seeds for sprinkling
Marinade
1 tablespoon tamari
2 teaspoons maple syrup
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 small garlic clove, minced
1/4 teaspoon minced ginger
Method
Preheat your oven to 160 degrees Celsius and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Place the salmon or trout filets on the prepared baking tray with the skin side down.
To make the marinade, in a bowl, combine the tamari, maple syrup, sesame oil, minced garlic, and minced ginger. Mix until well combined.
Spoon the marinade over the fish filets, ensuring that they are well coated. Allow the fish to marinate for 15-20 minutes.
Once marinated, place the fish fillets back on the baking tray with the skin side down.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily.
At the 15-minute mark, remove the fish from the oven.m Sprinkle sesame seeds evenly over the fish.
Return the tray to the oven and bake for the remaining time, approximately 5-10 more minutes, or until the sesame seeds are lightly toasted.
Once removed from the oven, let the baked salmon or trout cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Serve it over a bed of rice with some stir-fried greens for a delicious meal.
