Trout grilled in a lemon-garlic marinade
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. It's better to grill trout on a barbecue with the head on, as it turns out juicier. I usually don't use any spices except black pepper, but you can add your favorite seasonings. This is a perfect dish for an outdoor outing. Serve the finished dish at the table.

4. Slice the onion into thin half-rings, mince the garlic or crush it. Put half of the garlic and the sliced onion into a container (I used a large plastic bag when outdoors) where the fish will be marinated, and add a cup of sunflower oil. Place the other half of the garlic into the bag, add salt, and 2 tablespoons of oil. Squeeze half a lemon's juice into each container.
