I found this dish to be a bit bland. I would recommend adding more spices or herbs to the recipe.

I love the combination of flavors in this dish. The smokiness of the trout pairs well with the sweetness of the peas and the tanginess of the lemon.

This dish was a hit with my family! The trout was perfectly smoked and the sugar snap peas added a nice crunch. I will definitely be making this again.
