Method

Preparing the Trout

  1. 1

    Marinate the Trout

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Add the trout fillets to the marinade and let them sit for 20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Grill

    While the trout is marinating, preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Making Herb Butter

  1. 3

    Prepare Herb Butter

    In a small bowl, soften the unsalted butter. Add fresh parsley, fresh dill, and lemon zest. Mix until well combined.

  2. 4

    Chill the Butter

    Place the herb butter on a piece of parchment paper, shape it into a log, and refrigerate until firm.

Grilling the Trout

  1. 5

    Grill the Trout

    Once the grill is hot, place the marinated trout fillets skin-side down. Grill for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

  2. 6

    Serve

    Remove the trout from the grill, and top each fillet with a slice of the chilled herb butter. Serve with lemon wedges and fresh dill sprigs.
