BLACKENED TROUT



Blackened Trout image

My first time ever cooking trout, altho I've eaten it twice at O'Charleys restaurant. Delicious, easy, and tasty way to prepare trout.. found this online, but I did list the type of trout I just fixed. The cooking time depends on the thickness of your fillets. Also, I've tried this with Catfish fillets too, and its just as good.It would work on any of your favorite fish fillets.

Lighten your typical fall spread with a hearty salad of roasted red kale, fresh endive, tender shrimp and rounds of bright orange. The shrimp are tossed with a pop of spicy harissa before roasting, then the whole dish is dressed lightly in lemon juice and topped with pomegranate seeds and roasted almonds. It's a stunning dish that's as flavorful as it is beautiful.

BLACKENED TROUT WITH ESCOVITCH

This West Indian dish may be on the lighter side, but it's definitely not lacking in flavor. Instead of frying the trout, I like to rub it with a homemade blackening seasoning and then top it with pickled peppers, carrots and onions.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

1 cup white vinegar
2 teaspoons Caribbean all-purpose seasoning
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon whole allspice (pimiento berries)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
6 sprigs fresh thyme
2 cloves garlic, minced
Juice of 1/2 lime (about 4 teaspoons)
2 carrots, julienned (about 1 1/4 cups)
1 large white onion, thinly sliced (2 cups)
1 green bell pepper, julienned (about 1 cup)
1 red bell pepper, julienned (about 1 cup)
1 Scotch bonnet pepper, halved and seeded
2 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
1 3/4 teaspoons kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
4 trout fillets (about 2 pounds)
1/4 cup (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Make the escovitch: Combine the vinegar, all-purpose seasoning, sugar, allspice, salt, thyme sprigs, garlic, lime juice and 1/3 cup water in a large saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Stir until the sugar and salt dissolve. Add the carrots, onion, bell peppers and Scotch bonnet and cook until the vegetables become slightly tender, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside. (Remove the Scotch bonnet before serving.)
  • For the trout: Combine the garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, thyme, onion powder, oregano and cayenne pepper in a small bowl. Coat each piece of trout with the blackening seasoning. Heat half of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until almost smoking. Add two trout fillets to the skillet and cook until the fish is browned and flakes with a fork, about 3 minutes on each side. Repeat with the remaining butter and trout. Spoon the escovitch on top of each fish fillet before serving.

Tips:

  • To ensure the trout is cooked evenly, make sure the fillets are of uniform thickness. If they are not, adjust the cooking time accordingly.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan when searing the trout. If necessary, cook the fish in batches.
  • To prevent the blackened seasoning from burning, keep a close eye on the fish while it is cooking.
  • The spicy kale is a great way to add some heat and flavor to the dish. If you prefer a milder flavor, reduce the amount of red pepper flakes.

Conclusion:

Blackened trout with spicy kale is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The blackened seasoning gives the trout a crispy, flavorful crust, while the spicy kale adds a nice kick. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
