Lemon-Pepper Trout
Fresh trout is a perfect addition to your meal plan. It has a mild flavour and is the perfect choice to bring out fresh, bright Mediterranean flavours. Trout is abundant in omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, and essential vitamins and minerals, all of which have beneficial effects for the heart and the brain. An added bonus is that, even though it shares many similar health benefits with its close relative salmon, trout is typically more affordable.
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 380°F.
- Brush each fillet with olive oil on both sides and season with salt and pepper. Place the fillets in an even layer in the air fryer basket.
- Place the sliced garlic over the tops of the trout fillets, then top the garlic with lemon slices and cook for 12 to 15 minutes, or until it has reached an internal temperature of 145°F.
- Serve with fresh lemon wedges.
AIR FRYER HACK:
For easier clean-up and to ensure your fish doesn't stick, line the air fryer basket with aluminium foil before cooking.
