Stuffed Trout

This elegant stuffed trout recipe offers a sophisticated way to enjoy fresh, sustainable seafood at home. The delicate flavour of rainbow trout is perfectly complemented by a savoury filling of seasoned crabmeat, earthy mushrooms, and vibrant peppers. It is an excellent choice for those seeking a diabetes-friendly meal that does not compromise on taste or presentation, as the fish naturally fans open during cooking to reveal the colourful stuffing inside.

Low in saturated fat and high in protein, this heart-healthy dish is quick enough for a midweek dinner yet impressive enough for weekend entertaining. The addition of fresh lemon juice and parsley adds a bright, citrusy finish that lifts the rich notes of the crab. Serve alongside steamed seasonal greens or a crisp garden salad for a light and balanced Mediterranean-style supper.

Ingredients for Stuffed Trout

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 60ml coarsely chopped mushrooms

  • 2 tablespoons chopped red pepper

  • 1 teaspoon seeded and minced jalapeño

  • 25g chopped red onion

How to make Stuffed Trout

Preheat the oven to 218°C.

Heat the olive oil in a large nonreactive saucepan. Stir in the mushrooms, peppers, jalapeño, onion, and celery, if using.

Cook for 2 to 3 minutes over medium-high heat, stirring frequently.

Remove from the heat and cool for 15 minutes.

Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Stir in the crabmeat. Set the mixture aside.

Fan open the trout and sprinkle with the Old Bay Seasoning.

Loosely pack the cavities of the fish with the vegetable-and crabmeat mixture. Place in a large baking dish and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until cooked through. The fish will expand, displaying the stuffing.

Remove the trout from the pan and squeeze a lemon into the pan juices. Pour over the fish. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
