Broiled Trout with Blood Orange Olive Oil and Shrimp Skewers

The first time I had broiled trout was in Montana, and its rich and buttery flavor always stuck with me. I decided to try and make some on my own, but used Devo Blood Orange Olive Oil to add some light citrus notes. I also used garlic, shallots, and fresh sprigs of rosemary. I got the trout whole at my local whole foods market and also saw some shrimp skewers on display in the seafood case, so I picked up some of those as well and broiled them alongside the trout. This was my first time using an infused olive oil, and I was VERY pleased with the results. The blood orange olive oil was absolutely amazing and gave the ideal citrus twist to the trout and shrimp. Not too citrus-y where I felt like I was eating an orange with a side of fish, and not too light where I could barely taste the citrus. The blood orange olive oil and trout combination was the perfect combination of buttery fish and faintly sweet and citrus-y dressing. I read online that blood orange olive oil can also be used in desserts to give a bit of a blood orange flavor to cakes and other sweets, which is definitely something I am looking forward to trying. Just opening the bottle and smelling the beautiful whiff of blood orange is inspiring!
