Coat the bottom of a baking pan with olive oil. Sprinkle the chilli salt, lemon pepper and mixed pepper over the top. Sprinkle all the herbs evenly on top.

Rinse the trout in cold water and pat dry with a kitchen towel. Grate the lemon and set the zest aside and squeeze the lemon for lemon juice. Drizzle the trout with lemon juice and season with sea salt both inside and out. Place a sprig of parsley inside each trout and add a little lemon zest.
