  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Selecting and Preparing the Fish

  • Choose fresh steelhead trout with a firm texture and mild scent.
  • Rinse fillets under cold water and pat dry with paper towels to remove moisture.

  • Drizzle olive oil and squeeze fresh lemon juice over the fish for enhanced flavor.

Baking the Steelhead Trout

  • Preheat oven to 250°F (120°C).
  • Place seasoned fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 125°F (52°C).
