Here’s my favorite way to prepare and enjoy fresh trout from the lake! The mango chutney is phenomenal all by itself, with notes of ginger, curry, and lime taking center stage. The simple marinade on the trout saturates pleasing flavor into each bite. I knew this one was a winner when my kids ate every bit and then asked for seconds!
Don’t limit yourself to just using trout with this recipe. If Mahi Mahi is more readily available to you then go with that.
