Easy Fish Recipe Lemon Thyme Grilled Trout – Truites Grillées

Fish & Seafood · Main Course · Provencal Recipes · Tasha Powell · Taste

Many people are afraid to cook whole fish, but once you have made this recipe once you will realise that not only is it simple, it is almost failsafe.

The most challenging part of this Lemon Thyme Grilled Trout might be finding fresh trout. If you have a reliable fish vendor, they likely have fresh trout in the spring and summer months. Ask your fishmonger to clean and remove the scales, so you do not need to worry about that messy task when you get home.
