Ingredients

  • 1 whole Rainbow Trout (roughly 1 lb), de-boned
  • ½ lemon
  • 1 lime
  • 5 sprigs fresh thyme
  • salt and ground black pepper

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat grill to medium. (You should be able to hold your hand 4 inches over the cooking grate for 5-6 seconds.
  2. Prepare the fish by sprinkling the cavity and exterior with salt and pepper. Stuff the cavity with lemon and lime slices and the sprigs of fresh thyme.
  3. Place the fish on a hot, clean grill grate. (Both hot and clean are very important here for making sure your fish doesn’t stick to the grill!)
  4. Cover and grill 5 minutes. When the fish is ready to flip, the skin will release easily from the grill grate.
  5. Flip, cover the grill, and cook an additional 5 minutes.
  6. Serve warm with a green salad or rice.
