Want a simple and tasty fish dish that always works? Then try this baked trout from the oven! With just a few ingredients – lemon, dill, garlic, and a good rainbow trout – you can put a healthy and delicious dish on the table in no time.
Preparing it in the oven keeps the fish soft and juicy, while the skin gets a crispy layer. There is no fuss or complicated techniques: prepare, put it in the oven, and enjoy!
Easy Baked Trout with Garlic and Herbs
I saw rainbow trout and immediately thought, “I have to make this!” I often put it on the BBQ in the summer, but the weather wasn't right for that, so off it went into the oven!
Because the fish still has its skin, it stays nice and juicy, and it is easy to prepare. Lemon and dill go perfectly with the soft taste of salmon trout. Add a little garlic, and you have a delicious, simple dish. It's ideal for a weekday meal but also perfect for a festive dinner. Serve it with a fresh salad, roasted vegetables, or potatoes from the oven, and you have a complete and healthy meal.
