Grilled Trout
Ingredients
- 4 trout filets
- salt, to taste
- black pepper, to taste
- 4 tsp garlic powder
- 4 tsp smoked paprika or cumin (optional)
- lemon (for serving)
Instructions
- Begin by preheating your grill on medium/high to about 400 degrees Fahrenheit
- While the grill is heating, place trout filets on a clean surface (plate or sheet pan) to season
- Drizzle each filet with olive oil, using a pastry brush to evenly coat the filets
- Next, season the trout with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and other seasonings as desired
- If available, place the trout filets in a fish grilling basket. Alternatively, place the filets directly on the grill grates, skin side down
- Grill trout on each side for 3 to 5 minutes until cooked through
- You can check for doneness by inserting an instant read thermometer into the fish. The internal temperature should be 145 degrees Fahrenheit
- Serve hot off the grill with fresh lemon. Enjoy!
