Baked Citrus Trout

We took our kids to a local trout farm to fish.  I'd have to say that our trip didn't last long.  They caught 11 fish in 15 minutes.  They really wanted to keep fishing, but I don't know what I would have done with anymore fish.  Needless to say, they had a ball and we discovered that my son is a pro at catching loose fish.  They kept jumping out of the bucket it was so full!  The poor boy also wanted to keep one as a pet.  He said he would put it in a bucket and feed it once a day.  I love that boy!  I also love Summer.

8 trout fillets
4 sliced lemons
¼ cup of melted butter
¼ cup of chopped parsley
Salt and pepper, to taste

Preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C).

In a shallow dish, combine the melted butter and salt and pepper.

Dip the trout fillets in the butter mixture and place on large rimmed baking sheets.

Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the trout, then top with slices of lemon.

Bake for about 15 minutes or until the fish flakes easily.
