In a bowl, combine chopped fresh parsley, chopped fresh dill, lemon zest, a drizzle of olive oil, fresh lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper. Mix the ingredients well to create a fragrant marinade.
Marinate the Trout:
Lay the Himalayan trout on a plate or in a shallow dish. Spoon the marinade over the whole fish, ensuring it’s evenly coated. Allow the trout to marinate for about 15-20 minutes to infuse the flavors.
