PREPARATION: Make the Lemon Sauce recipe in this cookbook. Can be prepared two hours ahead.
Cut the remaining lemon from the Lemon Sauce recipe into very thin slices.
COOKING AND SERVING: Heat the grill or broiler. Brush the trout inside and out with olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper. Arrange lemon slices in an overlapping row in the cavity of each fish and lay parsley stems on top of lemon. Grill or broil trout until just done, about Put fish on warm plates and top with Lemon Sauce.
NOTES : Simple uncooked lemon vinaigrette meets simple grilled trout. A simple, uncooked Lemon Sauce, really a vinaigrette, is the perfect complement to delicate-fleshed trout. You can substitute arugula or chervil for some of the parsley in the sauce.
