Ingredients

• 4 fillets trout fillets
• 0.5 cup honey
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 cloves garlic
• 0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoons smoked paprika
• 2 teaspoons lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Rinse and pat dry the trout fillets with paper towels. Set aside.

Step 2

Mince the garlic cloves and chop the fresh parsley. Keep them ready for cooking.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, brown sugar, ground black pepper, smoked paprika, and lemon juice.

Step 4

Heat a large non-stick skillet or cast-iron pan over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt until it starts to foam slightly.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic to the melted butter and sauté for about 30 seconds, or until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

Step 6

Pour the honey-soy mixture into the pan and bring it to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 2 minutes to allow it to thicken slightly.

Step 7

Carefully place the trout fillets, skin-side down, into the pan. Spoon the glaze over the fillets as they cook.

Step 8

Cook the trout for 3-4 minutes on the skin side, then carefully flip each piece and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the fillets are golden brown, caramelized, and cooked through.

Step 9

Once cooked, remove the trout from the pan and transfer to a serving platter.

Step 10

Drizzle any remaining glaze from the pan over the trout fillets.

Step 11

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve hot. Enjoy your Honey Browned Trout Candy as a delicious appetizer or snack!
