This was just wonderful.  A neighbor brought up a fresh trout and I tried this recipe.  Yes, I added fresh Tarragon instead of Oregano.  It was so great!

This was very easy and quick. I just wish it had side and drink pairings to go with it.

My husband and I loved this trout recipe!  I used steelhead trout and served it with Angel hair pasta with tomatoes and basil.  Emeril never fails for me!
