Instructions
Creating Grilled Norwegian Fjord Trout with Lemon and Herb Marinade is both simple and satisfying. Follow these steps for a delicious outcome:
1. Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, chopped dill, parsley, and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
2. Marinate the Trout: Place the trout fillets in a shallow dish or a resealable bag. Pour the marinade over the fish, ensuring they are fully coated. Allow the trout to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
3. Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium heat (around 375°F/190°C). Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
4. Grill the Trout: Remove the trout from the marinade and place them, skin-side down, on the grill. Grill for about 4-6 minutes on one side.
5. Flip Carefully: Using a spatula, gently flip the trout. Grill for an additional 4-6 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and is cooked through.
6. Garnish and Serve: Remove the trout from the grill. Garnish with lemon slices and additional fresh herbs if desired.
7. Pair with Sides: Serve with your choice of sides like grilled vegetables, quinoa, or a fresh salad to complete the meal.
