How I Bake Fish?

sp1ttle

I bought a couple of rainbow trout from the market, and I am planning on baking them in the oven. Anybody got any simple recipes?

a common recipe is with a little lemon or lime. Personally I prefer lemon pepper seasoning, as it doesn't add any liquid and lets the fish get flaky w/o getting soggy.

It's for that reason that I usually fry fish (with just a small amount of oil). But if it's a fresh fish, you can just cook it with a little salt and pepper, some seasonings of your choice, and it'll be delicious. Trout's pretty tasty on its own.

Whole fish? http://www.bigoven.com/161140-Whole-Fish-baked-in-Salt-Crust-recipe.html I really love doing this. I have not used this recipe, but its a basic preparation.

It comes out awesome. PS dont eat crust.

Rainbow trout have a pretty light & clean flavor for fish. You really don't want to do to much to them. A quick pan-fry is always good for trout.

You could do trout almondine:

personally I like using a little lemon juice, some lemon pepper, and a little butter then wrapping it in tinfoil to keep it super moist and awesome.

Salt, lemon pepper, and some dill weed can be absolutely delicious on any white fish.

I dont think you can really go wrong with fish. Raid the spice rack and jazz it up as much as you want. If worse comes to worse, there is always tartar sauce!

Fish + green onions + ginger + chilies + lemongrass + parchment paper & oven = some tasty baked fish.

I thought of this immediately.


Also, with rainbow trout:

Roast some almonds, fillet the fish and keep the skin (not the scales). Brush garlic butter over the top (fish side, not skin side), salt and pepper, sprinkle (well, cover... but not cover) almonds, and bake.

The ones that I bought are farmed. Is there any ecological problems with farmed trout? Any taste differences between farmed and wild caught?
