Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 1 lemon, sliced into thin rounds with the ends reserved

• 1.5 teaspoons minced garlic
• 1.5 teaspoons minced onion

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

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

Step 2

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

Step 3

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

Step 4

Add garlic and onion to skillet; sauté until garlic browns slightly, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper; squeeze reserved lemon ends over top.

Step 5

Gently lay trout fillet on lemons, skin-side-down. Brush garlic mixture over top of fillet.

Step 6

Cook trout until flesh flakes easily with a fork, about 10 minutes.
