Here's one I whipped up the other day, it came out beautifully.
Things you'll need:
- Cleaned trout w/ head removed
- Aluminum foil, (if you're cooking more then one fish you will need multiple pieces, they must be big enough to individually wrap the fish for baking.)
- Olive oil and a brush to spread it over the foil
- Salt
- Pepper
- 2 lemons (if you have big ones, one should be sufficient)
- A lemon zester
- Dried parsley flakes (fresh would be even better)
- A teaspoon sized cube of butter (you'll need more or less depending on the size and number of fish you're cooking)
- Ms. Dash Original Blend Seasoning (
http://www.mrsdash.com/products/seasoning-original.aspx - You could probbly use any of the other blends, I've only tried the original and garlic & herb and found that the original is much better on fish.)
Directions:
1. First things first, pre-heat your oven to 425 degrees
2. Get the piece(s) of foil that you will be using, drop a teaspoon or two of olive oil on the DULL, not shinny side of the foil and spread it evenly with a basting brush this helps keep the fish from sticking to the foil during the cooking process.
3. Take your fish, dry them with paper towel and place them on the pieces of foil.
4. Generously add Ms. dash, salt, pepper, parsley flakes to the fish both inside and out. (Note: Ms. Dash contains pepper already but I added extra cause that's how I like it
)
5. Scrape some lemon zest on top of the fish, however much you like.
6. Slice up your lemon and put a few of them inside the fish and on the top of it, they take the cube of butter and put that inside the fish on top of the lemon slices you already put in there.
7. Now your trout is ready for baking, semi loosely wrap the trout in the foil so it has a bit of room to steam itself and place it onto a baking sheet and bake for 25mins. Once done you can take the lemon slices that cooked with the fish and squeeze the juice onto it if you like it tangy. Serve with your favorite sides and enjoy!
Your final product should look something like this:
