Pan-fried rainbow trout

I belong to a CSF (Community Supported Fishery) here in NYC (run by the Village Fishmonger) and I have received rainbow trout as part of the Kosher share the past several weeks. I’ve tried a number of recipes for it and simply pan-frying it has easily been the tastiest and easiest option.
