brown sugar grilled trout

grilled fish is a springtime/summertime/anytime favourite in our household.  whether it's salmon, tilapia, trout; grilled straight up served topped with salsa, or in a taco, we just can't seem to get enough.  thankfully it's a healthy option any way you serve it, which leaves room for a nice glass of riesling or rose which is obviously a necessity when one grills in the early evening sunshine.
