Broiled Rainbow Trout

Ingredients

Directions

Preheat the broiler.

Sprinkle the cavity with salt and pepper.

Rub the outside with oil.

Place on an oiled rack 5-inches below the broiler (at the second level) and broil for 5 minutes on each side.

The skin will just be spottily charred and the flesh moist and tender.

Serve with lemon wedges.

Notes*

Variations:

Broiled Trout with Rosemary:

Place a sprig of rosemary in the cavity of each trout before cooking.

Broiled Trout with Cream:

Use a shallow pan instead of the broiler rack.

After broiling 2-3 minutes on the second side, pour 3/4 cup heavy cream over trout and broil another 5 minutes, basting a couple of times.

Omit lemon wedges and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of chopped parsley and 1 tablespoon of fresh tarragon or 1 teaspoon dried, crumbled.
