WHOLE RAINBOW TROUT BAKED IN FOIL



Whole Rainbow Trout Baked in Foil image

It's easy to find farmed rainbow trout these days. They're usually boned and "butterflied" - opened up, with the halves still attached. I bake them in foil packets and moisten them with the savory juice that accumulates inside as they bake.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, easy, quick, weekday, main course

Time 15m

Yield Serves four

Number Of Ingredients 7

Extra virgin olive oil
4 small rainbow trout, boned
Salt
freshly ground pepper
2 lemons, one sliced, one cut in wedges
8 fresh tarragon or dill sprigs, or 4 rosemary sprigs
Chopped fresh tarragon, dill or parsley for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Cut four sheets of heavy duty aluminum foil or eight sheets of lighter foil into squares that are three inches longer than your fish. If using lighter foil, make four double-thick squares. Oil the dull side of the foil with olive oil, and place a trout, skin side down, on each square. Season both sides with salt and pepper, and open them out flat. Place two tarragon or dill sprigs (or one rosemary sprig) and two lemon slices down the middle of each, and fold the two sides together. Drizzle 1/2 teaspoon olive oil over each fish.
  • Making sure that the trout are in the middle of each square, fold up the foil loosely, grabbing at the edges and crimping together tightly to make a packet. Place on a baking sheet, and bake for 10 to 15 minutes, checking one of the packets after 10 minutes. The flesh should be opaque and pull apart easily when tested with a fork.
  • Place each packet on a plate. Carefully cut across the top to open it, taking care not to let the steam from inside the packet burn you. Gently remove the fish from the packet, and pour the juices over it. Sprinkle with fresh tarragon, dill or parsley. Serve, passing the lemon wedges.

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 whole rainbow trout , gutted and cleaned
1 tbsp olive oil
1 lemon , thinly sliced
sprigs of various herbs (parsley, thyme and dill would all work well)

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, firm trout: The fresher the trout, the better the dish will taste. Look for trout with bright, clear eyes, firm flesh, and a mild, fresh smell.
  • Stuff the trout generously: Don't be afraid to stuff the trout with a generous amount of herbs and vegetables. This will help to add flavor and moisture to the fish.
  • Use a variety of herbs and vegetables: The more variety of herbs and vegetables you use, the more complex and flavorful the stuffing will be. Some good options include parsley, thyme, rosemary, sage, celery, carrots, and onions.
  • Season the trout well: Be sure to season the trout both inside and out with salt and pepper. This will help to enhance the natural flavor of the fish.
  • Cook the trout until it is just cooked through: Overcooked trout is dry and flaky. Cook the trout until it is just opaque in the center, about 10 minutes per inch of thickness.

Conclusion:

Herb-stuffed baked trout is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. With a little planning and effort, you can create a dish that will impress your friends and family.
