LEMON-BASIL BROILED RAINBOW TROUT
We usually smoke our trout and salmon, but decided to give this new recipe a shot. The lemon slices really make this dish, and the accent of basil and garlic puts it over the top. It’s quick and easy, and is outstanding served with wild rice. Also high on the “healthy” side of recipes you will find here. Enjoy…
