Baked Bangus with Calamansi Marinade
Ingredients
  • 2 pounds whole milkfish (bangus), or more to taste
  • 1 tomato, diced
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 (2 inch) piece ginger, thinly sliced crosswise, or to taste, divided
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 4 calamansi, juiced
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the desired temperature of 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Cover a roasting pan with an adequate amount of aluminum foil to completely cover the bangus.
2
Carefully remove the scales and gills from the bangus, then wash out the innards. Pat the fish dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
3
Mix together tomato, onion, and one-third of the ginger in a bowl. Add salt and pepper to taste. Make a horizontal incision on the front side of the fish, then fill it with the tomato mixture. Place the fish in the prepared roasting pan.
4
Mix calamansi juice, soy sauce, garlic, and the remaining ginger in a separate bowl. Pour this mixture over the fish in the pan. Fold the aluminum foil over the fish, ensuring all edges are sealed tightly.
5
Bake the fish in the preheated oven for approximately 60 minutes, or until it flakes easily with a fork.
