Serve hot and enjoy!
For an extra touch of flavor, try adding a sprig of fresh rosemary or a clove of minced garlic to the fish cavity.
Ensure the trout is cooked through by checking that the flesh flakes easily with a fork. Overcooking will result in dry fish.
Serve with a side of wild rice and steamed asparagus for a complete and nutritious meal.
