Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Drizzle a large oven-safe pan with oil.

  2. Rinse trout and pat dry with a paper towel. Place on a flat work surface. Cut trout from one side through the middle horizontally to within one-half inch of the other side. Open the two sides and spread them out like an open book, lay onto the prepared pan.

  3. Place tomatoes, onion, lemon juice, cilantro, garlic, coriander, cumin, salt, pepper, and cinnamon in a food processor. Pulse until chopped fine but not pureed. Pour 1/2 the mixture on top of 1/2 of the trout, fold the other side of trout on top. Spoon the remaining 1/2 of the mixture on and around the sealed trout. Add water to the pan, arrange potatoes around the trout. Cover pan with aluminum foil.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until trout flakes easily with a fork, about 45 minutes.
