CRISPY TROUT WITH KITCHEN BUTTER SAUCE
Steps:
- If it's convenient, set the serving plates to warm in a low oven (175 degrees F) as you prepare the fish.
- For the sauce, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and thyme and cook them briefly until lightly browned. Add the cream, bring it to a boil and reduce quickly by half. Add the remaining 10 tablespoons butter gradually, pat by pat, whisking until incorporated. When the sauce is smooth and thick, discard the garlic and thyme and add the chives, sherry vinegar, tarragon and salt and pepper to taste.
- Heat two large cast-iron skillets over medium-high heat. Sprinkle both sides of the fish with salt and pepper and dust the skin sides with the flour. When the pans are hot, add enough canola oil to thinly coat the bottom of each and add a fish to each pan, skin-side down. Cook until the skins turn golden brown and opaque doneness creeps into the pink flesh of the fish. You want to cook the fish nearly all the way through on the skin side. Flip the fish and transfer them to a plate to keep warm in the oven. Cook the remaining fish.
- Pour 3 to 4 tablespoons of sauce onto each warm plate, top with a trout, skin side pointing up, and serve immediately.

GRILLED BUTTERFLIED TROUT WITH LEMON-PARSLEY BUTTER
Steps:
- Heat grill to high. Brush trout on both sides with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill, skin-side down, until slightly charred and crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully turn each fish over and continue cooking until just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes longer. Remove from the grill and top each with 2 tablespoons Lemon-Parsley Butter. Garnish with parsley sprigs and lemon wedges and serve.
- Mix all ingredients together in a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before using.
Tips:
- Choose the right trout: Select fresh or frozen trout fillets that are firm and have a mild, slightly fishy smell. Avoid fillets that are slimy or have a strong odor.
- Prepare the garlic butter: Combine melted butter, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. You can also add fresh herbs like parsley or dill for extra flavor.
- Preheat your grill: Heat your grill to medium-high heat. If you are using a charcoal grill, let the coals burn until they are white-hot and covered with a thin layer of ash.
- Season the trout: Brush the trout fillets with olive oil and sprinkle them with salt and pepper. You can also add your favorite seasonings, such as lemon pepper, garlic powder, or paprika.
- Grill the trout: Place the trout fillets on the preheated grill and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the fish is cooked through. The trout is done when it flakes easily with a fork.
- Serve the trout: Transfer the cooked trout fillets to a serving platter and spoon the garlic butter over them. Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as grilled vegetables, rice, or potatoes.
