I love rainbow trout, basically you can prepare it like any other fish. It is the tastiest when you fry it in a pan, until the skin is browned and crunchy.
I rub salt, pepper, and tumeric on both sides, let it stands in refrigerator for about 1-2 hours. Then when I am ready to fry it, I will take it out of the refrigerator for about 30 minutes earlier(I think it will cook better if it is at room temperature).
Put oil in the pan, turn the stove on, the oil has to be hot when you put the fish in the pan, this way the skin gets really crunchy.
after about 3-4 minutes lower the heat and let it fry, while the delicious inside is cooking.
Turn it half way through, it doesn't get a long time for the fish to cook, it is so tender. I look at the color and know when it is time to turn.
In case if you need a more pro. recipe, here is one for you.
Enjoy the trout ...

Low and sluggish in a frying pan is the superb way. We lived on a lake stocked with trout and ate it many times interior the summertime. We constantly pan-fried it in butter. airborne dirt and dirt the fish with flour and put in a warm pan with melted butter. Fry for 4 minutes on one side, turn and fry for 3 minutes. Season with lemon pepper.

My favorite two ways to cook trout:
Trout Almondine
1/3 cup butter or margarine
1/2 cup blanched slivered almonds
4 (8 ounce) trout
4 tablespoons butter or margarine
1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
salt
pepper
In a small bowl, melt the 1/3 cup butter or margarine in a microwave for approximately 30 seconds.
Add almonds and heat, uncovered, in the microwave for 3 minutes or until lightly browned; stir occasionally. Set almonds aside.
Arrange fish in a shallow, 10-inch, heat resistant, baking dish. Place 1 tablespoon of butter on each fish and sprinkle with lemon juice, salt, and pepper, to taste. Cover with wax paper and heat for 7 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Spoon browned almonds over fish and heat, uncovered, in the microwave for 2 minutes or until heated throughly.

Split, leave skin /scales on, and grill scale-side down. This is "on the half shell" and you can dot w/ butter and lemon as it is just about done.
