Yes, trout can be cooked like salmon. Trout is an oily fish with a unique flavor that lends itself to many cooking methods.  It can be grilled, baked, poached, smoked, broiled, or pan-fried. In general, any recipe you would use for salmon can also be used with trout.  When grilling or baking trout, it is important to keep in mind that the cooking time will be shorter than for salmon due to its smaller size.  Trout can also easily be cooked in a skillet with butter, herbs, and lemon juice. When preparing trout, ensure not to overcook as this can cause the flesh to become dry and tough.  Enjoy your trout served with fresh, seasonal vegetables for a healthy and delicious meal.
