  • 1 cleaned rainbow trout (about 1/2 lb), with head on
  • 6 mint leaves, chopped finely
  • finely chopped parsley, same quantity as the mint
  • a pinch of finely chopped sweet basil
  • 1 tbsp butter

Directions

Directions:

Chop herbs and mix into butter and lemon juice.
If you're using salted butter, no additional salt will be needed, otherwise add about 1/4 tsp salt to the mix, plus pepper to taste.
Gently rub skin with a small amount of butter and herbs.
Fill fish's body cavity with remaining butter and herbs.
Grill 5-7 minutes per side. When the eye that's down turns white, that side is done.

Preparation time: 5 minutes

Cooking time: 5-7 minutes per side
