Best 4 Trout With Haricots Verts And Almonds Recipes

TROUT ALMONDINE

Steps:

• Using a dry pan heated over medium-high heat, toast the sliced almonds on both sides until lightly browned. Be careful not to scorch them or they will be bitter. Set aside until ready to use.
• Sprinkle both sides of the fish filets with salt and freshly ground black pepper.Place the flour in a shallow dish and dredge both sides of the filets in the flour. Shake off the excess flour.Heat the oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the fish filets in batches, skin side down, until the skins are nicely browned. Carefully turn the fish filets over and cook the other side until the fish is done (the USDA recommends 145 degrees F. You can also test it by sticking a fork into the thickest part at an angle and give it a gentle twist so you can see into the flesh. Once the fish is opaque and has lost its translucent appearance is done.) Be careful not to overcook the fish or it will be dry.Transfer the fish to a warm plate and tent with foil while you prepare the sauce.
• To make the sauce: Melt the butter in the same pan. Stir in the lemon juice, parsley and the toasted sliced almonds. Add salt and pepper to taste. Place two filets on each plate (or one large filet) and spoon some sauce over each filet. Serve immediately.

HARICOTS VERTS ALMONDINE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to boil.
• Meanwhile, in a large saute pan, toast the almonds over medium-high heat until golden brown and fragrant, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the pan, finely chop and set aside.
• Blanch the string beans in salted boiling water until crisp but tender, 2 to 3 minutes. The salt will impart flavor as well as help keep the string beans crisp. Immediately drain and run cold water over the beans or plunge into an ice bath to cool and stop the cooking process, then remove and completely dry.
• Return the saute pan to the burner over medium heat and melt the butter with the olive oil. Add the shallots, sprinkle with salt and pepper and cook until starting to brown, stirring occasionally, 3 to 5 minutes. Toss the drained beans with the shallots and add the lemon zest and juice. Cook to heat the beans completely through, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and season with additional salt and pepper if needed. Toss with the toasted chopped almonds and transfer to a serving dish.

HARICOTS VERTS WITH ALMONDS, RICOTTA SALATA AND ORANGE-HONEY DRESSING

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the haricots verts, bring back to a boil, and cook until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Transfer the haricots to a bowl of ice water to stop cooking; drain and pat dry.
• Whisk together the orange juice, zest, vinegar, honey, and some salt and pepper in a large bowl. Gradually whisk in the olive oil until emulsified.
• Combine the haricots, almonds, most of the ricotta salata and some salt and pepper in a serving bowl. Pour some of the dressing over the top and gently toss to coat. Taste and add dressing, salt and pepper as desired. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese, and serve.

TROUT WITH ALMONDS & RED PEPPERS

• Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Tip the pepper, tomatoes, garlic, oil and vinegar into a roasting tin, then toss them together. Roast for 20 mins, then make a space in the roasting tin for the trout fillets, scattering with the almonds and a little salt and pepper.
• Return to the oven for a further 10-15 mins, until the fish is cooked and the almonds lightly toasted. Serve with lemon wedges for squeezing over and a rocket salad on the side.
