Grilled Rainbow Trout with Cilantro Jalapeno Relish

Rainbow trout have pink flesh like salmon and a similar taste, while maybe not as strong. Grilling trout filets over charcoal adds a nice smokey flavor and the cilantro and jalapeno relish adds a fresh bite. This is a great way to enjoy fresh caught trout!
