Oven Baked Trout

Serves: 2-4 people
Cook time: 20-25 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2-4 Trout (head on)
  • 2 Tablespoons of olive oil (per trout)
  • 2 Lemons
  • 1/2 Cup cilantro (per two trout)
  • 1 Green onion (per trout)
  • Garlic salt, fresh cracked peppercorn, and a rub to taste. (I used a Wild Game Rub from Bearded BBQ)

Directions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Wash and pat dry your trout then set it to the side.
  3. Chop the onions and cilantro, put them in a bowl and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Take half of a lemon and juice it into the onion, cilantro and olive oil mixture
  4. Put the trout in an aluminum foil boat, then brush the trout on the outside with the leftover olive oil. 
  5. Insert the onions, cilantro and olive oil mixture inside the trout. 
  6. Slice the other half of the lemon and insert the slices inside the trout as well. 
  7. Cut the remaining lemon in half and juice the lemon onto the trout as a whole on both sides. 
  8. Sprinkle the garlic salt, ground peppercorn and rub of your choice to taste.   
  9. Put the remainder of the lemon slices and cilantro and some onion on top.
  10. Fold the foil and create a pocket or boat to trap and steam the liquids of the trout.
  11. Pop the boats into the oven for 15-20 minutes.
  12. Once done, carefully transfer the trout to your plate and pour the remaining juices inside the foil over the fish.
