  • Lightly oil the grate of your grill. Arrange lemon slices on the grate so they overlap slightly and form a shape slightly larger than your trout fillet.
  • Preheat grill for medium heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Heat olive oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Saute garlic and onion in the hot oil until the garlic browns slightly, 2 to 3 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Squeeze the reserved lemon ends over the garlic mixture.
  • Gently lay the trout fillet onto the lemons with the skin side down. Brush the garlic mixture over the top of the fish.
  • Cook trout on hot grill until the fish flesh flakes easily with a fork, about 10 minutes.
