Grilled Trout Recipe

Easy grilled trout recipe

This grilled trout recipe can actually be cooked on the grill or in the oven.

It is one of the nicest rainbow trout recipes you will find, and like the best fish recipes, both easy and delicious.

I love rainbow trout. It is like salmon, but more delicate in texture and flavor. It takes to great flavorings really well, so it’s a fish that you can eat often and not have it the same way twice.

The French dressing may sound like an odd addition, but the combination of creamy and sweet gives this recipe a delicious richness.

Trout is such a delicate, delicious fish and grilling it like this gives it a wonderful flavor.
