Recipe: The most simple grilled rainbow trout…EVER!

Another simple recipe, this time using Rainbow trout that was on sale for $7.99 / lb at Whole Foods! This went great with zucchini and asparagus. The other items on the plate are chicken breast and spicy chicken burgers. I know the plate looks messy and crowded…but when you don’t have a kitchen (STILL!) it’s nice to use less dishes so you are able to cook at home sometimes!

Grilled Rainbow Trout

Ingredients:

• Whole rainbow trout, cleaned and gutted with head intact.
• Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• Ground Sea Salt
• Fresh Ground Pepper
• 1/2 lime, cut into wedges

Necessary tools:

• Grill (or broiler)
• Metal skewer (or wood skewer soaked in water for 30 mins)

1. Rinse trout in cool water.
2. Rub inside and out with olive oil, salt and pepper.
3. Place lime wedges inside trout and use metal skewers to enclose the cavity of the fish.
4. Grill over medium heat, 6-8 minutes per side until skin is crispy. Flip only once and use great caution not to let the fish fall apart.
5. Serve!
