When you need to quickly feed a tired and hungry family with dinner, fish is a great option. It is not only rich and nutritious, but also contains many vitamins and amino acids. And if you bake it, it will retain most of the useful properties that are lost with another form of heat treatment. Consider the proven recipes for trout baked in the oven in foil.
