Here are two ways the Team likes to cook trout. Simple but tasty recipes that fishermen can quickly turn the day's catch into dinner! The first recipe calls for trout fillets while the second recipe uses whole trout that have been gilled and gutted!
Both recipes pan fry the trout in a skillet for 5 to 10 minutes each side on medium-high heat. However, the fillet trout recipe uses olive oil and melted butter, and the whole trout recipe uses peanut oil or similar high heat oil.
