Notes
To store – Transfer leftover trout to an airtight glass container and keep in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
To freeze: It's recommended to place it in an airtight container. Frozen cooked trout can generally be stored for up to 2-3 months for the best quality.
To reheat – Heat in a pan on the stove so the trout stays crispy or broil it for 1-2 minutes in the oven. You can also heat in the microwave too.
