Let's treat the palate to something light and fresh... And, let's make it QUICK and ONE-PAN!👌 You know, let's be e-FISH-ent!😜

I bought these gorgeous butterflied #rainbowtrout from Fulton Fish Market. Grab my discount code under the "Links" tab!

⭐️ They cook quickly because they are butterflied (ie: mostly boneless).

⭐️⭐️ And, because they aren't filled with pesky bones, you can dive right in!

Season the cavity. Fill with lemon and garlic slices.

Dry and score the skin. Then, season liberally and gently rub the seasoning into the cuts.

Fold the foil over the fish and crimp the edges to make a packet.

Bake for 10-15 minutes. Open the foil packet to expose the fish and broil until skin is crispy.
