Carolina Trout Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Trout

   Rinse the trout fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

2. 2

   Make the Marinade

   In a small bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, and the juice of one lemon. This will be used to marinate the trout.

3. 3

   Marinate the Trout

   Place the seasoned trout fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

4. 4

   Preheat the Grill

   Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

5. 5

   Grill the Trout

   Place the marinated trout fillets on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

6. 6

   Prepare the Arugula

   While the trout is grilling, rinse the arugula and set it aside. Squeeze the juice of the remaining lemon over the arugula and toss lightly.

7. 7

   Serve

   Once the trout is done, serve it on a plate with a generous handful of arugula on the side. Drizzle with additional olive oil if desired.
