• 0.25 cup fresh parsley (chopped)
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 10 pieces baby potatoes (halved)

• 2 pieces bell peppers (sliced, mixed colors)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Rinse the trout under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Set aside.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, lemon zest, and half of the lemon juice.

Step 4

Rub the garlic-paprika mixture over the trout, ensuring the inside cavity is also coated. Season the fish with sea salt and black pepper.

Step 5

In a large baking dish, arrange the halved baby potatoes, sliced red onion, and bell peppers. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, the white wine, and the remaining lemon juice. Add the bay leaves and gently toss to combine.

Step 6

Place the seasoned trout on top of the vegetables in the baking dish.

Step 7

Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.

Step 8

After 20 minutes, remove the aluminum foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the trout is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.

Step 9

Sprinkle the baked trout and vegetables with chopped fresh parsley before serving.

Step 10

Serve hot with crusty bread or a side salad for a complete meal.
