  3. Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  4. 2 cups thinly sliced red onion
  5. 4 ounces ground chorizo
  6. 1 lime, thinly sliced
  7. 4 ounces fresh cilantro
  8. 1 ounce fresh dill
  9. For The Pebre Sauce
  10. ½ cup minced yellow onion
  11. 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  12. 1 tablespoon dried oregano
  13. 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  14. 1 tablespoon white balsamic vinegar
  15. ½ cup diced tomatoes
  16. 1 teaspoon minced cilantro (about 4 sprigs)
  17. 2 jalapeños (about 2 oz.), seeded and minced
  18. 1 garlic clove, ground to a paste
  19. Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  20. 2 lemons for garnish

Method

  1. Preheat the Egg to medium heat, about 375°. Rinse the inside of each fish, then brine for 30 minutes, up to an hour. Season the fish with salt, and pepper.
  2. Fill the cavity of each fish with ½ cup of onion, chorizo, and lime, and whole sprigs of cilantro and dill. The fish will be very stuffed; roll them tightly in foil leaving no exposed fish and space them at least 3 inches apart on the grill.
  3. Grill the fish for 12–15 minutes. The meat is cooked when it is opaque and flakes easily.
  4. While the trout is roasting, make the Pebre sauce: Combine onion, olive oil, oregano, lemon juice, vinegar, tomatoes, cilantro, jalapeños, and garlic in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Remove the fish from the foil packet, very carefully. Open the fish up and top with Pebre sauce and cilantro, garnish with lemon wedges and enjoy!
