Sheet Pan Thai Sweet Chili – Lime Baked Fish with Garlic Broccolini

Sheet Pan Thai Sweet Chili – Lime Baked Fish with Garlic Broccolini is an easy, healthful flavor-packed meal perfect for a weeknight or date night dinner!  

Hey, friends!  I’ve got a great dinner for you I think you’re going to love!  A simple Thai sweet chili and lime glaze is poured over fish fillets then baked with broccolini and garlic for the ultimate healthful and easy weeknight dinner!

The inspiration behind this dish:

I grew up in a strict Catholic household where fish on Fridays was always the thing.  Even though we don’t adhere to Lenten dinner practices now, I love the overall concept of it by skipping the meat.  When you get down to it, it’s never a bad thing to eat less meat and eat more fish and veggies!

If fish is not your thing, this would be equally delicious with chicken cutlets.

Let’s make this easy, delicious dish!

How to make Sheet Pan Thai Sweet Chili – Lime Baked Fish with Garlic Broccolini:

• Place broccolini on a baking sheet along with thinly sliced garlic and minced ginger.
• Toss the broccolini, garlic and minced ginger with oil.

• Nestle thin fish fillets such as… 
  • Barramundi
  • Tilapia
  • Flounder
  • Sole
  • Catfish

… in the broccolini.

• Pour the sweet chili – lime glaze over the fish.
• Add lime wedges…

• —And bake!

How hard was that?  It’s not hard at all!

Serve over jasmine rice and garnish with thinly sliced scallion.  Be sure to serve the roasted lime wedges along with the fish!
