Ingredients

  • 1 pound rainbow trout fillet
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons butter melted
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon dill minced (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Cut a sheet of foil large enough to wrap the trout completely. Then, cover the baking sheet with the aluminum foil, and place the trout fillet in the center.
  • Then, season the trout with salt and pepper. Drizzle the melted butter over the trout until evenly coated and top with minced garlic and fresh minced dill.
  • Fold the sides of the foil over the trout. Cover it completely.
  • Bake for about 13 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Then, open the foil, and broil for 3 minutes.

Notes

To store – Transfer leftover trout to an airtight glass container and keep in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
To freeze: It's recommended to place it in an airtight container. Frozen cooked trout can generally be stored for up to 2-3 months for the best quality.
To reheat – Heat in a pan on the stove so the trout stays crispy or broil it for 1-2 minutes in the oven. You can also heat in the microwave too.
