*Preparation Method: A quick,* [*high-heat grill*](https://news.freshaig.com/grilling-seafood/) *to crisp the skin and lightly flake the meat, topped with a raw, fresh summer fruit salsa.*

**Serves:** 2 people

## Ingredients

- 2 whole rainbow trout fillets, skin-on (about 6-8 oz each)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 2 ripe peaches, pitted and diced
- 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
- 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, thinly sliced (chiffonade)
- 1 jalapeño, seeded and minced
- 1 tbsp fresh lime juice

## Instructions

1. Preheat your [grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F)](https://news.freshaig.com/grilling-seafood/) and lightly oil the grates.
2. In a medium bowl, combine the diced peaches, red onion, basil, jalapeño, and lime juice to create the salsa. Let sit at room temperature to allow flavors to meld.
3. Pat the [trout](https://news.freshaig.com/tag/trout/) fillets dry with a paper towel. Brush both sides lightly with olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper.
4. Place the trout fillets skin-side down on the grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy and the edges turn opaque.
5. Carefully flip the fillets and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the meat flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F.
6. Remove the trout from the grill and plate immediately.
