Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 4, 3 ounces fish per serving

Ingredients

Cooking spray
2 tablespoons plain rice vinegar
1 tablespoon soy sauce (lowest sodium available)
1 tablespoon canola or corn oil
1 tablespoon grated peeled gingerroot
1 tablespoon snipped fresh Italian (flat-leaf) parsley and 1 tablespoon snipped fresh Italian (flat-leaf) parsley, divided use
1 teaspoon bottled minced garlic or 2 medium garlic cloves, minced
2 8- to 9-ounce trout fillets with skin, rinsed and patted dry

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Lightly spray the grill rack with cooking spray. Preheat the grill on medium high.

    Step 2

    In a small bowl, stir together the rice vinegar, soy sauce, and oil. Remove and set aside 1 tablespoon of the mixture. Brush the remaining mixture over both sides of each fillet. (It helps keep the skin side from sticking to the grill rack.)

    Step 3

    In the same small bowl, stir together the gingerroot, 1 tablespoon parsley, and garlic. Sprinkle over the flesh side of the fish.

    Step 4

    Place the fish with the skin side down on the grill. Grill for 4 to 6 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Using a wide spatula, remove the fish from the grill. Place the fish with the skin side up on a platter. Discard the skin. Cut each fillet in half. Drizzle with the reserved 1 tablespoon rice vinegar mixture. Garnish with the remaining 1 tablespoon parsley.
