Of course! Feel free to customize the seasoning according to your liking. You can adjust the amount of garlic, mustard, chives, red pepper flakes, and salt to match your taste preferences.

What can I serve with this dish?

While this recipe includes broccoli as a side, you can also pair the baked trout fillet with other low-carb vegetables such as asparagus, cauliflower, or zucchini. A fresh salad with a Keto-friendly dressing would also complement the meal nicely.

Can I use fresh herbs instead of dried chives?

Yes, you can substitute fresh chives for dried chives if you have them available. Simply chop them finely and use them in place of the dried chives. Fresh herbs can add a vibrant flavor to the dish.

How do I know when the trout is cooked through?

The trout is cooked through when it flakes easily with a fork and has reached an internal temperature of 63°C (145°F). Cooking times may vary depending on the thickness of the fillet, so keep an eye on it to avoid overcooking.

How do I store leftovers? Can I freeze the cooked trout?

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. To freeze the cooked trout, ensure it has cooled completely, then wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil before placing it in a freezer-safe bag or container. It can be stored in the freezer for up to 2-3 months. To reheat, thaw the trout in the refrigerator overnight and then warm it gently in the oven or microwave until heated through.

    Use a brush or spoon to evenly coat the trout with the olive oil mixture, ensuring that the fillet is covered on all sides. Bake the trout for 20-25 minutes, or until it flakes easily with a fork and is cooked through. The cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fillet.

    Wash and dry the broccoli thoroughly. Cut it into smaller florets, ensuring they are relatively uniform in size for even cooking. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the broccoli florets evenly on the baking sheet. Drizzle the broccoli with olive oil, making sure to coat each floret. Sprinkle the remaining ½ teaspoon of sea salt over the broccoli.
