Ingredients List
- 4 whole rainbow trout (cleaned, about 250–300g each)
- 4 slices lemon (from 1/2 lemon)
- 4 small sprigs rosemary
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 1 garlic clove, crushed
- Salt, to taste
- 8 slices prosciutto
- Olive oil, for drizzling
- 1/2 lemon (remaining half), for squeezing over before serving
- 2 medium zucchinis, thinly sliced
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Steps
- In a small bowl, combine the butter and crushed garlic, and season with salt. Slice 1 lemon in half, then cut one half into 4 slices, reserving the other half. Place a lemon slice, a rosemary sprig, and a spoonful of the butter mixture inside each trout cavity. Wrap each trout with 2 slices of prosciutto, then drizzle with 3 teaspoons of olive oil and rub to coat. Season with pepper.
- Cut the remaining 2 lemons in half and drizzle the cut sides with 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
- Juice the reserved lemon half into a bowl. Add the vinegar, chopped chilli, and remaining olive oil. Season and add the zucchini ribbons, tossing gently to combine. Set aside for 10 minutes to let the flavours develop.
- Grease and preheat a barbecue to medium-high. Cook the trout, turning occasionally, for about 8 minutes or until just cooked through. Transfer the trout to a plate. Grill the lemon halves, flesh side down, for 2 minutes or until charred and caramelized.
- Just before serving, add the mint and dill to the zucchini mixture and toss to combine. Arrange the zucchini salad on a plate alongside the trout and grilled lemon halves.
