Rainbow Trout Recipe

Anyone have a favorite recipe for baking Rainbow Trout? I would like to try something different then the same old recipe. Thanks

Sweet Soy Sauce Salmon/Trout
2 pounds Salmon filets (skin-on)
6 tablespoons Sugar
2 tablespoons Canola Oil or vegetable oil
8 tablespoons Soy sauce
10 cloves Garlic sliced
2 tablespoon Wine optional

— Marinade —
Instructions
Make marinade: Combine sugar, soy sauce and wine (optional) in a medium bowl. Mix thoroughly till sugar dissolved and set aside. Cut fresh salmon into 4 even pieces. Put them in another medium bowl. Pour 2/3 of the marinade over the salmon. Let it stand for 20 minutes. Turn salmon pieces over every 5 minutes if you want. Slice the garlic and set aside. Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet pan over high heat for about 2 minutes. Add oil to pan and swirl to coat. When oil shimmers (but does not smoke), add fillets skin side down and cook, without moving fillets about 30 seconds. Reduce heat to medium-high; Cover the pan with a lid; Continue to cook until skin side is well browned, about 4 minutes. Turn fillets and cook, without moving them. Pour the rest of marinade over fillets evenly. Add sliced garlic in the pan and cover it with the lid. Let the pan cook for 3 minutes. Remove fillets from pan to a plate. Pour the sauce (including cooked garlic) in the pan over fillets. Garnish with chopped scallion or cilantro. Serve.

Or

Sauté 16 ounces of crushed pecans in butter. Once sautéed, move pecans aside and place a butterflied trout and fry it in the same pan meat side down. Once meat is cooked, flip over and cook (skin down) just long enough to loosen skin from meat (add more butter if needed). Once cooked serve with the sautéed pecans and fresh veggies.

You could always filet them instead, and then do a lemon pepper fry batter…yum!!!

smoke em’…. really tasty. We usually use birch…. a little lighter on the taste.

If they are whole stuff the cavity with any type of herb, and bake in foil. I like Fennel in mine and basil sometimes.

If they are whole, make some stove top stuffing or your favorite recipe adding some crab to the stuffing. Stuff the cavity and bake!!! Yummy!!!
