  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. Move an oven rack to 5 or 6 inches below the heat source and preheat the oven’s broiler on high heat.

  4. Broil trout until opaque and barely firm to the touch, 2 or 3 minutes. Remove from oven.
