This is a great recipe for trout whether you just caught them or picked them up at the store. Wrapping the fish in bacon not only adds flavor, but keeps the fish moist and tender.
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 20 minutes
Yield: Serves 4
Ingredients:
- 4 small whole trout, cleaned
- 4 strips of bacon
- 4 sprigs of fresh thyme
- 1 lemon
- salt and pepper to taste
Preparation:
Oil and preheat grill. Rinse out the trout and pat dry with a paper towel. Place a sprig of thyme inside each fish. Wrap each trout with a strip of bacon and secure with a toothpick. Place trout on grill or in an oiled grill basket. Grill 5-7 minutes per side depending on the size of the trout. When the meat turns opaque in the center and easily flakes then the fish are done. Discard bacon and squeeze a little fresh lemon juice over each fish. Serve.
