1
Prepare the Ingredients
Rinse the steelhead trout fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Season both sides of the fillets with salt and black pepper. Mince the garlic cloves and chop the fresh parsley finely. Cut the lemon in half and juice one half, while slicing the other half into wedges for serving.

2
Heat the Pan
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering but not smoking.
3
Cook the Trout
Place the seasoned steelhead trout fillets skin-side down in the hot skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes, without moving them, until the skin is crispy and the fish is cooked halfway through.
4
Add Garlic and Lemon Juice
Carefully flip the fillets over and add the minced garlic and lemon juice to the skillet. Continue to cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
5
Finish with Parsley
Once cooked, remove the trout from the skillet and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley before serving.

6
Plate the Dish
Serve the steelhead trout immediately with lemon wedges and capers on the side for garnish. Enjoy your delicious Steelhead Trout A La Plancha!
