Cooking Tips:

• Whole Fillet Roasting: Preheat oven to 375°F. Place fillet skin-side down on parchment-lined baking sheet. Season generously and bake for 20–25 minutes, depending on thickness, until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

• Grilling Whole: Brush with oil and place skin-side down on a medium-hot grill. Use foil or a grill basket to prevent sticking. Cook for 10–15 minutes total, flipping carefully if desired.

• Stuffed & Baked: Fill the cavity of the whole fillet with herbs, lemon slices, or aromatics, then bake wrapped in parchment or foil for a steamed, infused flavor.

Recipe Suggestions:

• Cedar-Planked Whole Trout: Grill the entire fillet on a soaked cedar plank for a smoky, aromatic presentation.

• Garlic Herb Butter Trout: Slather the fillet with a garlic herb compound butter and roast to golden perfection.

• Trout Nicoise-Style (traditional French Salad): Flake baked fillet into large chunks and serve over greens with olives, potatoes, and vinaigrette for a rustic, hearty salad.

• Smoked Whole Trout: Use in a smoker or low oven with wood chips to infuse a deep, savory flavor—perfect for enjoying warm or chilled.
