Trout
Whisk the Willow Creek Fig Balsamic Vinegar, honey, plum sauce, soy sauce,Willow Creek Olive Oil and garlic together. Pour it into a large Ziploc bag and add the trout. Seal and marinade it in the fridge for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
Preheat the oven to 200 °C and line a baking tray. Arrange the fish on the tray and spoon a generous amount of the marinade over each trout side. Bake for 8-10 minutes until fork-tender.
Salsa
Stir everything together and season to taste.
To Serve
Place the crispy bacon in a food processor and blend until it resembles the texture of breadcrumbs.
Spoon the rice into each serving dish and top it off with the edamame beans, trout and salsa. Add a sprinkling of the bacon and scatter some basil on top.
TIP: Edamame beans can be found fresh or frozen at some supermarkets as well as health shops or Asian supermarkets. If unavailable it can easily be replaced with peas.
