Lemon- Herb Trout


I'm such a huge fan of Stealhead trout - it's so good and it's so easy to prepare.  I buy the individually packaged frozen filets at Wal Mart and keep them in my freezer for nights when I need a quick dinner.  Last night, I defrosted some filets and I used a recipe from America's Test Kitchen for cod filets but substituted my trout instead.  

Lemon Herb Steelhead Trout with Crispy Garlic Potatoes
3 Tablespoons olive oil
2 russet potatoes sliced into 1/4" rounds
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 Steelhead trout filets
4 springs fresh thyme
1 Meyer lemon sliced thin








Toss potatoes with oil and garlic.

Season with salt and pepper.  Arrange potatoes on a baking sheet in rows of 3 so that they overlap slightly.

 

Roast potatoes 30 minutes at 425.


Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper and arrange lemon and thyme on top.


Place filets on top of potato slices.


Bake 10-15 minutes depending on thickness. 


I served the Steelhead Trout with a side of roasted broccoli.  It was really tasty.  Who says food that's good for you can't taste delicious?

Ciao!
