I thought I defrosted salmon, but now have 6 rainbow trout fillets to cook.... Was thinking I can use my bar pan. Has anyone done light/delicate white fish on their stones yet???
 
I did talapia with olive oil and almond slices (so the fish wouldn't really touch the stone) it was good! I made a thyme and dill sauce to go with it.

Thanks Emma. I baked them in my bar pan (stones don't retain the smell or taste ~ soooo yummy) with olive oil sprayed on, bread crumbs and a little parm and garlic powder. Very yummy.
