Trout with a soy, ginger and chilli glaze

My family are not great fish eaters, but when I cooked this for my partner he loved it and will often ask to have it.  I think it’s because it’s not a strong tasting fish and with the soy, ginger and chilli glaze it transforms this fish.

What goes well with this dish?

As it’s really quick to cook and goes lovely with chips or plain boiled rice.
