STEELHEAD TROUT BAKE WITH DIJON MUSTARD
This is really yummy - not overpoweringly mustardy! And, after all, any recipe that begins with white wine has to be good! It's not oily or buttery or anything. I've made it with salmon, and it's equally tasty.

THE BEST MARINATED SALMON (OR STEELHEAD TROUT) WITH MAPLE WALNUT
So I thought I was following another recipe, doing it from memory (and obviously my memory failed me) and voila - a new recipe was created! Good mistake this time! SO wonderful. If you like to hide the fishy taste of salmon/steelhead then this recipe is definitely for you! If you prefer yours more natural tasting, I recommend decreasing the marinating time to only 2 hours. Prep time listed does not include marinating time.

Steps:
- Place fish filet in a gallon resealable plastic bag.
- Wisk together the OJ, soy sauce, honey and syrup.
- Pour marinade over the fish, seal the bag, place it in a container (in case the bag has a small leak - you never know) and put it in the fridge to marinate.
- I like mine VERY marinated, so I let mine marinate for 6 hours. 4 hours is probably a great starting point for the first time you make this recipe and then go up or down from there in the future based upon your taste buds.
- Line a baking sheet with foil and preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- NOTE: If you fish has skin, then do not grease the foil. If your fish has had the skin removed, you MUST grease your foil.
- Cut filet into 4-6 pieces (depending on the size of your filet), place fish on the baking sheet with the smaller pieces (such as the tail part) in the middle - and putting skin side down on the foil. Discard the marinade.
- Cook fish at 350 degrees (uncovered) for approximately 20-30 minutes depending on how you prefer your fish cooked (20 minutes will be more medium while 30 minutes will be pretty well done).
- About 5 minutes before the fish is done, you can warm up the sauce ingredients in a sauce pan over medium heat just until the sugar is melted - then turn the heat to low.
- Remove the fish from the oven, then remove each filet from the foil with a spatula (leaving the skin stuck to the foil), plate up the fish and pour the sauce over the top.
- Enjoy!

STEELHEAD TROUT BAKED WITH HONEY OR MAPLE GLAZE
Steps:
- Melt the butter in a small sauce pan over low heat. Whisk in the ingredients. Place the fish in the center of a rectangle of foil. Pour the glaze over the fish and fold the packet around the fish. Preheat the oven to 400°F. (This essentially allows the fish to marinate). If you're in a big hurry, start the oven before you make the glaze and just pop it in. Bake for 10 minutes + 10 minutes for each inch of thickness. So, a one inch thick fillet would bake for twenty minutes. 1.5″ would be 25 minutes. Got it? The recipe makes enough glaze for a little over two pounds of fish. It is easily halved or doubled. This recipe could be done on the grill, but remember to not cook the fish over direct heat, unless you enjoy rubbery, dried out fish. On the grill it can be done in a foil packet as described or you may skip it. If you choose to grill, place it skin side up, first. Once the fish has cooked, it falls apart, the skin sort of holds it together, making transfer a little bit easier.
Tips:
- Choose the right fish. Look for steelhead trout that are wild-caught and sustainably sourced. The best time to fish for steelhead trout is during the spring and fall when they are migrating.
- Prepare the fish properly. Steelhead trout can be cooked whole or filleted. If you are filleting the fish, be sure to remove the bones and skin.
- Season the fish well. Steelhead trout has a mild flavor, so it is important to season it well. Use a combination of salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices.
- Cook the fish gently. Steelhead trout is a delicate fish, so it is important to cook it gently. Avoid overcooking the fish, or it will become dry and tough.
- Serve the fish with your favorite sides. Steelhead trout can be served with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
Conclusion:
Steelhead trout is a delicious and versatile fish that can be cooked in a variety of ways. Whether you are grilling, baking, or pan-frying steelhead trout, be sure to follow these tips to ensure that the fish is cooked perfectly. With its mild flavor and delicate texture, steelhead trout is a great choice for any meal.
