Camping and fishing go together like ham and eggs. After you clean and gut your catch, try one of these simple camping fish recipes. I have a fish recipe from each category: 1) Easy, 2) Weird, 3) Artery-clogging and finally, 4) Healthy. Easy: Tin Foil Rainbow Trout - fresh trout, any kind - 1 tablespoon butter - salt and pepper - 1 small onion, sliced - Bacon slices (optional) Leaving the fish whole, stuff the insides with butter, salt and pepper, and as many onions as will fit. Wrap each fish with 1-2 bacon slices if your heart desires. Place stuffed trout on buttered foil and wrap up tightly to trap the moisture. Place over white hot coals for 7-10 minutes. Weird: Grilled Catfish in Coffee Butter (I know you’ll be skeptical, but this recipe is from the catfishinstitute.com, it is very good.) - 1 tablespoon lemon juice - 1 tablespoon instant coffee powder - 1/4 cup melted butter or margarine - 1/4 teaspoon onion powder - 1/2 teaspoon salt - 2 pounds catfish fillets Combine lemon juice, instant coffee, butter, onion powder and salt. Brush mixture thickly onto fillets. Grill on a SPAM-sprayed campfire grate for 10 minutes. Turn and brush fish again with sauce. Grill 10 minutes longer or until fish flakes easily. Heart-Clogging: Beer Battered Fish - 1 1/4 c packaged biscuit mix - 3/4 c beer - 1 egg - 1/4 tsp salt - 4 fresh fish filet - cooking oil Beat together biscuit mix, beer, egg and salt. Pat fish to dry. Dip in batter to coat both sides. Fry in hot oil in skillet for 4 to 5 minutes on each side or until done. Healthy: Steamed Fish with Veggies - fish fillets - small potatoes - 1 medium Vidalia or any Sweet onion, sliced thin - 2 stalks of celery, chopped - 1 medium tomato, chopped - salt and pepper - 1 tsp Mrs. Dash garlic and herb seasoning - salad dressing (optional) Place fish chunks on top of heavy-duty tin foil. Pile vegetables on fish and season with the salt and pepper. Place a salad dressing on fish and vegetables. Italian is best, but Ranch, Raspberry, or some other favorite will work also. Wrap tightly and cook over a campfire for 15 to 20 minutes.
