Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces trout fillets
- 2 whole lemon
- 4 tablespoons fresh dill
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 8 slices lemon slices
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Rinse the trout fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
Zest one of the lemons and set the zest aside. Slice both lemons into thin rounds and reserve 8 slices for garnish.
Mince the garlic cloves and combine them in a small bowl with the lemon zest, olive oil, chopped dill, salt, and black pepper to make a flavorful mixture.
Place the trout fillets skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Evenly spread the lemon-dill mixture over the top of each fillet.
Lay two lemon slices on top of each fillet for additional flavor and visual appeal.
Bake the trout in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
Remove the trout from the oven and let it rest for 2 minutes before serving.
Serve the Lemon Dill Trout with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables or steamed rice, for a complete meal.
