Grilled Montana Trout
2 trout, cleaned and head removed
3 tablespoons cold butter, thinly sliced
6 sprigs fresh rosemary
1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
salt and pepper to taste
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 lemon, halved and thinly sliced
Place each trout onto a square of aluminum
foil. Open them up so that the flesh is facing upwards. On one
side of each fish, season with salt and pepper, half of the
garlic, half of the chopped rosemary and half of the parsley. Top
each fish with thin slices of butter, 3 rosemary sprigs and a few
slices of lemon. Squeeze one of the remaining lemon slices over
each fish. Enclose the seasoning inside each fish and wrap
securely with the sheet of aluminum foil. Wrap each fish in an
additional piece of aluminum foil.
Place fish in the coals of a campfire or on a grill over a flame
and cook for about 7 minutes on each side. If you can easily stick
a fork into the fish, it is done. Cooking time will vary depending
on the size of your fish and the fire. Allow to cool for a few
minutes before opening to serve.
