Directions
1. Step 1
Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat until butter smells toasted and is golden brown, about 1 minute. Turn off heat.
2. Step 2
Line a baking sheet with a piece of aluminum foil. Place trout onto foil; open trout so skin sides are down. Drizzle each trout with about 1/2 teaspoon melted butter. Generously season with salt and black pepper.
3. Step 3
Move an oven rack to 5 or 6 inches below the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler on high heat.
4. Step 4
Broil trout until opaque and barely firm to the touch, 2 or 3 minutes. Remove from oven.
5. Step 5
Return pan of remaining melted butter over high heat; stir in lemon juice and parsley. Bring butter sauce to a boil; whisk to combine.
6. Step 6
Serve trout on plates and drizzle with butter sauce.
