SHRIMP STUFFED TROUT.
I like making this dish when we go camping, if we are lucky enough to catch some trout. A couple of time I've used canned baby shrimp and a jar of chopped roasted red peppers. It works pretty well, but then again, everything tastes better when you are camping.

TROUT STUFFED WITH SHITAKE MUSHROOMS AND SHRIMP
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. On a foil lined baking pan, rub fish inside and out with a mixture of salt, pepper, 1 tablespoon garlic and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Cover and set aside in the refrigerator. In a large frying pan over medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add celery, onion and sauté for about three minutes. Empty into a large bowl. Without rinsing pan, heat two more tablespoons of oil to high heat. Add mushrooms, stirring constantly for about 5 minutes. Add to bowl. Add bread cubes, remaining oil and remaining garlic to bowl and combine ingredients gently. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add wine, stock, cumin and shrimp and stir until bread soaks up liquid. Stuff fish cavity with stuffing mixture. Place any remaining stuffing in a lightly oiled baking dish. Lightly tent fish with foil and bake for 50 minutes. Just before serving, melt butter in small saucepan. Add oil, lemon and cook over low heat for five minutes. Add salt, pepper and a pinch of cumin. Cover and remove from heat. Transfer fish to platter, top with fresh basil and pour lemon butter sauce over. Serve immediately.
Tips:
- Choose the right trout: Select fresh, firm trout with bright eyes and red gills. Avoid any fish that has a slimy or off odor.
- Prepare the stuffing in advance: To save time, make the shrimp stuffing ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator until you're ready to stuff the trout.
- Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will make it easier to butterfly the trout and remove the bones.
- Be careful not to overcook the trout: Trout is a delicate fish, so it's important to cook it carefully. Overcooked trout will be dry and tough.
- Serve the trout immediately: Trout is best served immediately after it's cooked. This will help to preserve its delicate flavor and texture.
