Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375F.
  2. Season the trout filets with salt and pepper and set aside.
  3. In a nonstick 9x13 baking dish add olive oil, garlic, diced red onion, diced bell peppers, black olives, green olives, capers, chicken bouillon paste, lemon juice, salt, pepper, water, rice and lentils. Give everything a good stir to combine.

  6. Garnish with crumbled feta cheese, fresh parsley and baby tomatoes along with a squeeze of lemon over each fish filet.
