So my brother, who is a very skilled outdoorsman, called me:
“Want some fresh trout? I just pulled in 2 large trout and if you’d like some, come get it”.
So, since I was going that way, I did.
Man, was that was worth the trip.
A hot pan, melted butter. a 1 pound filet. Just a dusting of onion powder (I didn’t have an onion) and a blessing of cayenne on one side.
Cook 4 minutes, flip.
A little seasoned rice on the side and a piece of bread.
Man, there is nothing like FRESH pan fried trout. Less than 2 hours hour from stream to plate.
The only way it could have been better was if I had other companions and it was cooked on a campfire streamside.
Thanks, bro.
