Boneless, stuffed trout is terrific on the grill. The meat becomes irresistibly smoky and sweet, a great foil to lemon juice and fresh herbs.

Ingredients

• 1 spray(s) cooking spray
• 1 medium lemon(s)
• 1 pound(s) raw rainbow trout, use two 8-oz whole boneless trout; not fillets
• 1 tsp table salt
• 1 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
• 1 Tbsp fresh oregano, left whole – about 8 sprigs

Preparation

Step 1

Off heat, coat grill with cooking spray. Prepare gas grill for direct, high-heat grilling or build a high-heat charcoal bed in the center of the coal grate on a charcoal grill.

Cut the lemon in half, lengthwise. Use a very sharp knife to cut one half into paper-thin half-moons.

Season the trout inside and out with salt and pepper. Stuff 4 oregano sprigs and half the lemon slices in the body cavity of each trout.

Place the trout on the prepared grill grate, directly over the heat. Cover and grill for 8 minutes.
