Instructions
First make the aioli butter. Smash the cloves into a paste with the side of your knife. Whisk in a mixing bowl with the egg yolk. Add lemon juice and salt and pepper. Slowly whisk in the oil, and your product should resemble mayonnaise. Fold in the half stick of soft butter and set aside.
Season trout fillet to your taste with salt and pepper. Place flesh side of trout on a hot grill for 3 minutes. Turn a half a turn and cook 3 minutes more. Flip fish to skin side. Cook 6 to 8 minutes more.
Heat a skillet on the stove and add oil. Add garlic and shallots. Cook for a moment and add seabeans, toss, and add wine. Reduce liquid until almost dry. Remove from heat and toss with soft butter.
Place seabeans on a serving plate and top with grilled trout. Place a dollop of your aioli butter on the fish and serve. Serves 4.
