Made this the first time with Rainbow trout and it was perfect! I've made it a ton of times since then with all types of fish filets, including flounder. Thanks for an amazingly easy, but extremely delicious recipe! A winner for sure!<br/>Italianmomof2

Made exactly as stated. What a lovely way to serve trout. None of the flavours overpowered the fish. It was all very subtle but worked so well. I served it with a Greek salad. Definite keeper. Made for Photo Tag

Delicious, fast, easy mid-week meal. Have made several times. I increase lemon juice and rind as we love citrus.

Wonderful! Other than substituting whole wheat flour for AP flour and walnut oil for veg oil, I followed the recipe. This takes no time at all and yields a yummy high-protein dish. I served 6oz. (>36 g protein) per person and they cleaned the plates.

I've always broiled my fish thinking that pan frying would be greasy and gross. this retained a lightness. I used large butterflied trout allowing me to only cook one at a time. put the other on baking sheet lined with paper towel in a 200 degree oven to stay warm. the lemon rind is key, adding a wee bit of sweetness. I will definitely make again.
