    Method

    • Broiled Trout with Garlic: Step-by-Step Method

    • Place trout, skin side down, on a lightly oiled baking sheet or broiler pan

    • Spoon or brush the olive oil and herb mixture evenly over the flesh side of the trout
    • Let the seasoned trout sit at room temperature while the broiler fully preheats
    • Broil the trout for 5-7 minutes, or until flesh is opaque and flakes easily with a fork
    • Use tongs or a spatula to carefully transfer trout to serving plates
    • Squeeze lemon wedges over the broiled trout just before serving
