Crispy Lemon-Butter Trout - 2026
​​​​​​​​​Recipe courtesy of Ron Wozny

INGREDIENTS
  • 4 trout fillets
  • ½ cup flour
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ¼ tsp garlic powder
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter, divided
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • Juice of ½ lemon
  • 1 tbsp chopped parsley (optional)

PREPARATION
1. Pat trout very dry. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Lightly coat in flour and shake off excess.
2. Heat skillet on medium-high heat. Add olive oil and 2 tbsp butter. Heat until butter foams.
3. Place fillets in the pan and cook 1½–2 minutes. Flip carefully and cook 1–1½ minutes more.
4. Reduce heat slightly. Add remaining 1 tbsp butter and minced garlic. Squeeze lemon juice into the pan.
Spoon butter over the fish for 20–30 seconds.
5. Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately.

This is a recipe we used as an option to our regular fish fry after a successful catch at Trout Hollow Lodge. Pairs great with lemon angel hair pasta!
