Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1.5 pounds trout (or salmon, or arctic char - 2 large fish fillets with skin on the bottom)
2 tablespoons olive oil (more, if needed)
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning ((dried thyme, oregano, parsley, combined together))
1/4 teaspoon salt (to taste)
4 garlic cloves (diced)
3 tablespoons lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
2 tablespoons white wine
2 tablespoons butter (softened)
2 tablespoons parsley (chopped)

Steps:

  • Season the top of fish fillets with Italian herb seasoning and salt (generously). Fish fillets will have skins on the bottom - no need to season the skins.
  • In a large skillet (large enough to fit 2 fish fillets), heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil on medium heat until heated but not smoking. To the hot skillet with olive oil, add fish fillets skin side up - flesh side down. Cook the flesh side of the fish for about 3-5 minutes on medium heat, making sure the oil does not smoke, until lightly browned.
  • Flip the fillets over to the other side, skin side down (add more oil, if needed). Cook for another 2-4 minutes on medium heat (to prevent oil from burning).
  • Remove the skillet from heat, close with the lid, and let the fish sit for 5-10 minutes, covered, in the skillet, until flaky and cooked through completely.
  • After the fish is cooked through, off heat, using spatula, carefully remove fillets to the plate, separating the fish from the skin. Carefully remove or scrape the fish skin off the bottom of the pan, making sure to leave all the cooking oils in the pan.
  • Add diced garlic, lemon juice, and white wine to the same pan with oil. Cook on medium-low heat for about 1 minute, until garlic softens a bit. Remove from heat. Add 1 tablespoon of chopped parsley, and 2 tablespoons of butter, off heat, to the sauce, stirring, until the butter melts and forms a creamy mixture.
  • Add fish to the pan, spoon sauce over the fish, top the fish and sauce with the remaining 1 tablespoon of parsley, and serve.

STEELHEAD TROUT BAKE WITH DIJON MUSTARD



Steelhead Trout Bake with Dijon Mustard image

This is really yummy - not overpoweringly mustardy! And, after all, any recipe that begins with white wine has to be good! It's not oily or buttery or anything. I've made it with salmon, and it's equally tasty.

PAN-FRIED TROUT WITH ROSEMARY, LEMON AND CAPERS



Pan-Fried Trout With Rosemary, Lemon and Capers image

This 1994 recipe gets Provencal flavors on the table in minutes. Fresh rosemary needles are pressed into the fillets, which are seasoned in flour and pan fried for a crisp exterior and flaky inside. A sauce built on shallots, white wine and lemon adds complexity. Pair it with a light vegetable like sautéed asparagus, or a bright arugula salad, and serve with some of that white wine for an easy, refreshing spring dinner.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
4 trout fillets
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 shallots, peeled and minced
1 cup white wine
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon drained capers

Steps:

  • Press 1/2 teaspoon of the rosemary needles into the flesh of each trout fillet. Combine the flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste. Coat the fillets in the seasoned flour.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the trout and saute until cooked through, about 2 1/2 minutes per side. Remove the trout from the pan and place on warmed plates. Add the shallots to the skillet and cook, stirring constantly, for 15 seconds.
  • Pour in the wine and reduce to 1/3 cup, about 5 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice, capers and remaining teaspoon rosemary and remove from the heat. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Place 1 trout fillet on each of 4 plates, spoon the sauce over the trout and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the right Chardonnay: Opt for a medium-bodied Chardonnay with a balanced acidity and subtle oak flavor. This will complement the delicate flavor of the trout without overpowering it.
  • Prepare the trout properly: Clean and gut the trout, then pat it dry with paper towels. Season the trout inside and out with salt and pepper, and then dredge it in flour.
  • Pan-sear the trout: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add butter or olive oil. Once the butter is melted and shimmering, add the trout and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  • Make the Chardonnay sauce: In the same skillet, add the shallots and cook until softened. Add the Chardonnay and lemon juice and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly.
  • Serve the trout: Place the trout on a serving platter and spoon the Chardonnay sauce over the top. Garnish with fresh herbs, such as parsley or chives.

Conclusion:

This Chardonnay Trout recipe is an easy and delicious way to enjoy this classic fish. The Chardonnay sauce adds a rich and flavorful dimension to the trout, and the crispy skin provides a delightful contrast to the tender flesh. Whether you're serving it for a special occasion or a weeknight dinner, this dish is sure to impress.
