Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 1 lemon, sliced into thin rounds with the ends reserved
• 1 filet steelhead trout
• 1.5 teaspoons minced garlic
• 1.5 teaspoons minced onion

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Lightly oil the grate of your grill. Arrange lemon slices on the grate so they overlap slightly and form a shape slightly larger than your trout fillet.

Step 2

Preheat grill for medium heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 3

Heat olive oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Saute garlic and onion in the hot oil until the garlic browns slightly, 2 to 3 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Squeeze the reserved lemon ends over the garlic mixture.

Step 5

Gently lay the trout fillet onto the lemons with the skin side down. Brush the garlic mixture over the top of the fish.

Step 6

Cook trout on hot grill until the fish flesh flakes easily with a fork, about 10 minutes.
