Don't forget that you will get the best taste if you immediately cut the gills and bleed the fish out, wait a minute or two, then bonk it. This eliminates a lot of the bad taste that can occur with these species. It also helps them keep longer in the fridge.I used this method twice now on that 32" lovely lady I caught. It's VERY simple and had great results.
You'll need:
Foil
Pyrex dish
Salmon Seasoning
Lemon Pepper
Fresh ground pepper
Olive Oil (I prefer extra light/virgin)
and Fillet(s) of Steelhead of course!
Preheat the Oven to 450 then:
Cut off a piece of foil large enough to fold around your fillet(s) and completely cover them. Spread it on a flat surface and pour some Olive oil on it. (enough to coat both sides of the fillets)
Coat both sides of the fillets, then add a healthy amount of Salmon seasoning, light coating of lemon pepper, and light coating of fresh ground pepper to both sides.
Wrap up in the aluminum foil and place in the pyrex dish. (this keeps it from getting too hot too fast)
Bake for 20 minutes.
I've done this twice this week, and the results are amazing. Very firm, very tasty fish - absolutely no 'fishy' taste. Best damned fish I've ever eaten. It's also an extremely healthy way to cook it.
Scallop potatoes, brown rice, fresh green beans (steamed) have all been good companions to the meat as well.

RE:Tasty recipe for Trout, Steelhead, Salmon
Hey thanks bionic one! That sounds pretty good. It's kinda similar to what I use but I never thought of the olive oil. Can't wait to try it out. Good luck out there!
When times get tough, just keep on fishin'!!!
