For an extra crispy crust, try using a combination of all-purpose flour and cornstarch (3:1 ratio). Be careful not to overcook the trout, as it can become dry. The fish is done when it flakes easily with a fork. Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your liking. For a milder flavor, reduce the amount or omit it altogether. Serve this Lemon Trout with a side of roasted vegetables, quinoa, or a fresh salad for a complete and healthy meal.
