Ingredients

  1. 1 1/2 pounds trout fillets (8 fillets total)
  2. Kosher salt
  3. 1/2 cup ketchup
  4. 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  5. 1/2 cup olive oil
  6. 1/2 cup chopped onion
  7. 1/4 cup brown sugar
  8. 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
  9. 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  10. 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
  11. 1 lemon, sliced

Instructions

  1. Sprinkle the trout fillets with salt. Set as many of fillets in a large skillet as will fit without crowding; if necessary, cook the fillets in two batches, reserving half of the sauce for the second batch.
  2. Make the basting sauce by mixing together the ketchup, mayonnaise, olive oil, onion, brown sugar, mustard, Worcestershire sauce and cider vinegar. Pour the sauce over the trout and cook over medium heat until the meat flakes easily with a fork, about 10 minutes. Use a fish spatula to carefully remove the trout to a platter. Garnish with lemon slices and serve.

Trisha this dish was delisha I don’t know how anyone could give this a 1 star they are probably not that great in the kitchen,I used a teaspoon of olive oil in the pan to crisp the skin of the trout the sauce was great! Well balanced not to acidic
And I agree with the person who said it probably would taste great on chicken.

I used cod as no grocery stores had trout. It all come out good. But, I think it needed something else to give it a kick. I made the Spanish rice. I used my own tomatoes and green pepper. I also put a can of green chiles. But as anytime I make rice, it always end up moist and a little mushy. But, I am used to it and it tasted great. I made enough for ten people!

It was really good! My family loved it. Thanks for the recipe. This is a good way to cook trout. The meat was still very juicy.

The sauce would be great with zucchini noodles as well.

The sauce was much too acid-tasting and it pretty much completely covered up any fish flavor. I’ve added a good deal of thickened soymilk and some fish sauce, which balanced flavors and made it tasty. I’ve also used the suggestion of another reviewer and added one diced bell pepper along with onions. That way, it came out pretty good and everyone liked it!

I took the shortcut. Bought a high end organic Thousand Island dressing in bottle and added lime zest to taste plus a sprinkling of thyme.
Seared the skin in butter and olive oil before pouring on the sauce.
I used Red Snapper because it was wild caught never frozen. It was thicker than a trout filet so I ended up covering it to finish cooking.
This was wonderful.

I liked this recipe — it was quick, easy and tasty. When I cooked the fish in the pan I let it cook for a few minutes in a hot pan with some olive oil so the skin of the trout would be a little more “crispy”. Then I added white wine to the pan and covered it so the rest would cook — it was good. Rather than yellow mustard I used Dijon. I would think this sauce would be very good on chicken as well.

I tried it and it was very good!!!!!!!!!!!! I used very little sauce and a splash of dry white wine. I may try this on chicken. This is alot healthier than a can of soup sauce or packet of sodium laden ingredients. Adjust to taste.

I agree with the ‘yuck’ comment, but Im going to explain why. By the way, I tried this recipe.
This recipe is good if you don’t like fish, and you want to hide its flavor, because you are basically boiling it in different types of grease, (oil, fat, call it whatever you want), plus sugar and sodium. It is not just unhealthy, which is ultimately your choice, but there’s no taste in it, apart from ketchup, mayo, and vinegar…
Yuck!

I hope my comment was more helpful.

I love thousand Island dressing, and I loved this fish recipe! I used tilapia, and added bell peppers in with the onions. I would eat it again in a heartbeat!
