Baked Trout with Broccoli, Apple, and Fennel Slaw image

This healthy fish recipe calls for baking the trout instead of frying it and includes not just vegetables in the accompanying slaw but fruit too. It's a dinner that hits all the right notes.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Seafood Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 fillets trout
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
1 lemon, thinly sliced
1 shallot, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon tahini
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest, plus 1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon apple sauce
3 broccoli stalks, peeled and julienned (about 1 1/2 cups)
1/2 bulb fennel, thinly sliced
1 carrot, peeled and julienned
1/2 tart apple, peeled, cored, and julienned
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Cut 4 pieces of parchment paper to 12 by 16 inches and arrange one fish fillet in the center of each. Season with salt and pepper and top with lemon slices and shallot. Drizzle with olive oil. To fold parchment, join long sides together and make a few 1/4-inch folds to seal. Fold ends like you're wrapping a gift and tuck underneath.
  • Transfer packets to a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until packet is puffed and fish is cooked through, 12 to 14 minutes. Remove from oven and let rest 5 minutes.
  • In medium bowl, whisk together tahini, lemon zest and juice, applesauce, and 1 tablespoon water. Season with salt.
  • Stir in broccoli, fennel, carrot, apple, and parsley until combined. Serve slaw with fish.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, crunchy vegetables. This will give your slaw the best flavor and texture.
  • Shred the vegetables thinly. This will help them absorb the dressing better.
  • Don't overdress the slaw. You want the vegetables to be coated in dressing, but not swimming in it.
  • Let the slaw chill for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the slaw to become more crisp.
  • Serve the slaw with your favorite grilled or roasted meats, fish, or poultry. It also makes a great side dish for potlucks and picnics.

Conclusion:

Ranch broccoli fennel slaw is a delicious, healthy, and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy side dish, give this ranch broccoli fennel slaw a try!
