This was wonderful. We used filets instead of a whole trout (and the grilling time was under 10 minutes with two small filets per packet), and since mangoes couldn't be found, we used honeydew. I can see how mango would be tasty, but the honeydew also worked quite nicely.

Absolutely excellent. I used only 1 fish (19" Dollie, so technically a char I guess), so mixed the ingredients in a lower quantity, but the result was fantastic. I've known for years how great mango goes with fish, but the jalapenos gave it the perfect kick I've been missing with the other trout I cooked. The charcoal flavor was there, but not overbearing, and another bonus is the skin sticks to the foil so it pulls right off. Overall it lacked nothing. I will definitely be using this recipe for future fish fries. Thank-you very much for it.

Great recipe! Used rainbow trout caught ice fishing, but didn't have access to fresh mango, so I used canned pineapple instead and the result was fantastic. Hope to try mango the next time. Served with wild rice. My boyfriend and I are avid fishermen but he loves to eat fish and I am learning to like it. This recipe was enjoyed by both of us.

Very tastey - the fish was tender and delicious and the compote was equally as good. No doubt this is a keeper!

Made this with Brook trout I caught in Canada. It was fantastic. My wife said it was the best fish she has ever had. The Jalapeno added just enough heat and the mango did not make it taste too sweet. I served it with garlic cream sauced Fettuccini with fresh spinach. Great combination.

I also made this with trout filets. It was ok but not great - too many flavors and textures going on. The fish was very thin and cooked quickly, way more quickly than the veggies. Nice for a change but I wouldn't make it again. Thanks anyway.

I didn't realize that this dish called for whole trout or a grill, so I spread the pepper/mango mixture over filets, wrapped them in aluminum foil and broiled them. It turned out well, though the cilantro got really mushy and tasted like canned spinach. Perhaps next time I'll wait until the fish is halfway cooked before putting the pepper/mango mixture on it.

Great Recipe. Wouldn't change a thing. Used Ruby Trout. Forgot to add the jalapenos, but luckily had some jalapeno hotsauce and added it at the end. Made some roasted corn and one of those Lipton Thai Noodles with it. It was great. Hubby loved it.

This was fantastic! I just found a new favorite fish recipe. I used vidalia onion instead of the green ones. When I make it again, I'll use more mango.
