you can do it without ngOutletContext. You have to use ng-template instead of template. following code works for me:

app.component.html:

app-parent is a child of app-component. app-child is declared in app-component as template and this template is used in app-parent.

app.parent.html:

app.parent.ts:

@Component({
  selector: 'app-parent',
  templateUrl: './parent.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./parent.component.css']
})
export class ParentComponent implements OnInit {

  @Input() public templateChild1: TemplateRef;

  public ngOnInit() {
  }

}
