Ingredients
- 4 pieces 6 ounces each Fresh steelhead trout fillets

- 3 cloves Garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill chopped

- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Line your baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
- Place trout fillets skin-side down on the baking sheet.
- Note: Ensuring your oven is at the right temperature before cooking is key to perfectly baked trout.
Step 2 – Mix the Seasoning
- In your mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped dill, salt, and pepper.
- Whisk these ingredients together until fully blended.

Step 4 – Bake the Trout
- Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the trout flakes easily with a fork.
- Warning: Keep an eye on your trout! Overcooking can dry it out, so remove it from the oven as soon as it’s done.
Notes
- Skin Removal: If you prefer skinless fillets, gently peel the skin off after baking. It comes off easily once cooked.
- Herb Variations: Not a fan of dill? Substitute with parsley or cilantro for a different flavor profile.
