4 Brook trout, with head and tail left on --
cleaned
2 Tablespoons Flour
Salt
7 Tablespoons Butter
3 Tablespoons Oil
2 Tablespoons Lemon juice
2 Tablespoons Chives -- minced

Rinse the trout under cold running water and pat dry. Dust lightly
with flour, and sprinkle with salt. In a large skillet, melt 3
tablespoons of the butter and the oil. When it is hot, put in the
trout and fry over medium-high heat. When browned, turn and brown the

When the trout is done, transfer to a warm platter and pour on the
sauce.
