Oh I love easy. Remember those super easy and gloriously delicious rounds of molten brie I made for a BBQ with friends recently? They weren’t the only easy dish I took along.
I also took two lovely whole rainbow trouts along to throw on the barbie, who needs ‘shrimp’.
Again a very easy dish to prepare and perfect to take along to a BBQ, be it at somebody’s home or an outdoor affair by the beach or in the park. The lemon placed inside the fish, along with being wrapped in prosciutto means you end up with some very moist and flavoursome fish.

I love the simplicity of Rainbow trout. I usually just oven bake them with some herbs or pan fry. This looks so much more tasty but still so easy!
