Game of Thrones: Bacon Wrapped Trout Recipe

She stared at the supper set before her: trout wrapped in bacon, salad of turnip greens and sweetgrass, pease and onions and hot bread.  Brienne was eating methodically, as if supper were a chore to be accomplished.

GAME OF THRONES, CLASH OF KINGS

I CAN’T WAIT until it’s Sunday!!!  I’m so excited, yet scared, to see what the season finale has in store for us. If it’s anything close to what we saw last Sunday, you know we’re in for some extreme highs and lows.  So much happened in the last episode that I need to watch it again before the new episode airs.

The recipe I have for today is bacon wrapped trout inspired by the a scene in the book, Clash of Kings.  This recipe is ridiculously easy especially if you purchase the fish already butterflied.  Other than that, it’s just making sure you don’t over cook the fish!  It’s a great recipe if you’re having a small gathering for the season finale.  Please enjoy!
