If you’re after a weeknight fish dish that feels a little special (but doesn’t need hours in the kitchen), this Grilled Trout with Dill and Mustard Sauce is your new best friend. Crisp skin, tender flesh, and a tangy‐herby drizzle make for a lovely combination that tastes top class but behaves like an easy dinner.

Method

Based on 2 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

Heat the grill to high. Pat the trout fillets dry using kitchen paper and put skin-side down on a baking tray. Sprinkle over a large pinch of sea salt and grill for 10-12 mins, depending on thickness, until crisp on top and cooked through.

Step 2

Meanwhile, put the Dijon mustard, lemon juice, honey, oil and most of the dill in a lidded jar and shake well to combine. Season well. Will keep for up to two days.

Step 3

Heat a little more oil in a large non-stick pan over a medium-high heat. Add the spring onions and capers and sizzle for 1-2 mins until slightly coloured. Mix in the grains, cook for 2 mins until heated through and season to taste. Serve alongside the trout with the watercress and remaining dill scattered over.
