Jamaican Trout

Trout will stand up to the flavours of jerk seasoning. So will a good salmon and it is fast and easy to make, should unexpected company appear at the door. This will serve 4.

 

• 1 tbsp.coconut oil
• 1 tbsp. lime juice
• 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 1 tsp. dried thyme
• 1 tsp. ground allspice
• 1/4 tsp. each of ginger, black pepper and sugar
• pinch of cinnamon and nutmeg
• 4 x 6 oz. trout fillets

In a bowl stir all the spices up to the trout fillets in a bowl with the oil. Brush on the flesh side of the trout.

Arrange, skin side down on a parchment lined cookie sheet and broil about 8 inches  from the heat, until it flakes easily (about 8-10 minutes).

Serve with brown rice, a crisp salad, glass of Pinot Gris and, of course, an oxygen mask if this becomes too hot. Test first….and, yes, I am kidding
