Ingredients

Step cooking

Prepare the products

1. Trout weighing about 500 g is thoroughly cleaned of scales, then we take out the insides and rinse again. Wipe the cleaned fish with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
   
2. Thoroughly wash a small bunch of parsley greens weighing about 20 g, then dry it thoroughly and chop finely with a sharp knife.
   
3. We divide fresh lemon in half and cut into 5-7 slices of medium thickness.
   

Make marinade

1. Pour 40 ml of olive oil into a deep bowl.
   
2. We squeeze out about 20 ml of lemon juice there. It is advisable to strain the juice through a fine strainer in order to avoid getting seeds and pieces of pulp.
   
3. Add a small amount of sea salt and a slightly ground mixture of peppers. The amount of pepper and salt depends on your taste preferences.
   

Prepare the fish

1. We clean the cleaned river trout well with the cooked marinade, rubbing it both on top of the fish and inside.
   
2. On the skin of the trout we make several cuts at a distance of 3-4 cm from each other. Try not to damage the ridge.
   
3. We stuff the fish with chopped parsley. We place all the greens in that part of the trout where the entrails used to be. There we put a couple of slices of citrus.
   
4. We place a slice of lemon in each cut, trying to shove it deeper.
   
5. Stuffed and pickled fish lay on two layers of foil.
   
6. Gently and fairly tightly wrap the trout in foil, forming a kind of envelope. Wrap the edges of the foil up.
   

Bake product

1. We heat the oven to a temperature of 180-190 ° C. We spread the product on a baking sheet, and then send it to the preheated oven. Bake fish for at least half an hour.
   
2. After 30 minutes, remove the trout from the oven and unfold the foil.
   
3. We return the delicacy to the oven for another 10-15 minutes so that the trout acquires a crispy golden crust.
   
4. We transfer the finished dish to a clean plate with foil and serve.
