Cornmeal Fried Trout

Instructions

1. In a bowl, combine all Buttermilk Brine ingredients. Add Trout fillets and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours.
2. In a shallow dish, combine all Cornmeal Coating ingredients.
3. Remove Trout from the brine and pat dry with paper towels.
4. Dredge each Trout fillet in the Cornmeal Coating, ensuring it's fully coated.
5. Heat Peanut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
6. Carefully place the Trout fillets into the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.
7. Fry for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
8. Remove the Trout from the skillet and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
9. Garnish with Lemon wedges and Fresh parsley.
