How to Make Baked Steelhead Trout Salmon With Apricot Salsa

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Prepare the Apricot Salsa: In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup chopped fresh apricots, 1/2 cup chopped fresh pineapple, 1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions, and 1/2 cup chopped bell pepper (any color).
  3. Add 2 tablespoons lime juice and 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro to the salsa. Gently toss to combine.
  4. Refrigerate the salsa for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
  5. Lightly grease a 9x11 inch baking dish.
  6. Place steelhead trout or salmon fillets (about 1.5 lbs total) in the prepared baking dish.
  7. Spoon the chilled apricot salsa evenly over the fish fillets.
  8. Gently pour 2 tablespoons of reserved apricot juice (from chopping the apricots) over the salsa and fish.
  9. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  10. Serve immediately with long grain and wild rice.
