Trout Two Ways

Caught a trout this weekend! Here's how to cook it, two ways. For both recipes, start with a cleaned, washed fish that's either been filleted or split open to lay flat. Keep in mind you can do this on the bbq grill in a disposable foil pan.

Sweet Trout (our favorite!)

Lay trout skin side down in a sprayed baking dish or tin foil disposable pan.

Slice an orange into circle or half circle slices and lay the slices over the meat of the fish. Coat the whole thing with brown sugar. The guy who told me how to do this said, "So, just when you think you have enough brown sugar, put a little more on there." So, I'd say for an average fish I put on probably 3/4 cup of brown sugar.

Bake until fish is done. We like our fish DONE, so I bake it at least a half hour until it dries a little and flakes. I like this served with rice.



Savory Trout (also good!)

Lay trout skin side down in a sprayed baking dish or tin foil disposable pan. Coat fish with a light layer of olive oil. Make a rub of garlic salt, parsely flakes, pepper, paprika, rosemary and rub it into the fish and lay onion slices over it.
