Pan Fried Trout With Lemon And Parsley Served With Garden Root Vegetables Recipes

PAN-FRIED TROUT

Steps:

• In a wide flat dish, combine the bread crumbs, garlic, parsley, oregano, red pepper flakes, zest of 1 lemon and salt, to taste.
• In a small bowl, mix together the mustard and the juice of 1 lemon. Brush both sides of the trout with mustard mixture. Coat the fish on both sides with the seasoned bread crumbs and press firmly to adhere the crumbs to the fish.
• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
• Coat a large skillet with about 1/4 to 1/2-inch of olive oil and bring to a medium-high heat. Add the fish to the pan, skin side down, and cook the fish 2/3's of the way, about 6 to 7 minutes. Carefully turn the fish over and cook the other side until the fish is brown and crispy, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the fish from the pan and drain on paper towels. You will probably need to work in batches to do 4 fish. After the first batch is done and dried on paper towels reserve it on a rack in a warm oven.
• When all the fish has been fried, remove the oil and any brown bits from the pan. Add the butter and remaining lemon juice and swirl to combine as the butter melts. Season with salt, to taste, and reduce by about half. Transfer the fish to a serving platter, drizzle with the butter lemon sauce and serve.
• What a fishtale!

PAN-FRIED TROUT WITH LEMON AND PARSLEY SERVED WITH GARDEN ROOT VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Prepare the vegetables. Cut the red potatoes in quarters. Peel and trim the baby carrots. Trim and cut the spring onions in half lengthwise. Peel and quarter the turnips.
• In a medium saute pan, over high heat, add the olive oil. Add the prepared vegetables, sprig of thyme and saute for about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and add butter. Continue to saute until lightly golden, another 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a preheated oven and roast for about 10 minutes or until caramelized.
• Meanwhile, make 3 diagonal slices on each side of the trout. Season with salt and pepper inside and outside. Dredge in flour. In a large saute pan, over high heat, add 2 ounces of butter. Pan-fry the prepared trout until golden, about 5 minutes. Turn and add a sprig of sage and the remaining 1-ounce of butter. Continue to pan-fry until golden on both sides, basting the topside of the fish with the cooking butter, another 5 minutes.
• Add lemon juice and parsley. Add the cooked vegetables to the trout and serve on pan for an informal al fresco dining, or on heated serving plates, place a pan-fried trout and surround with half of the caramelized vegetables. Sprinkle with parsley. Serve with lemon wedges on the side and serve immediately.

PAN FRIED TROUT

Steps:

• Rinse the trout under cold running water (or in the beautiful mountain lake/stream you caught them in).
• Pat dry.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper (I take a zip lock baggie in my pack with salt/pepper/garlic powder mixed together).
• Melt the butter in a large heavy skillet on medium-high heat.
• Coat the trout in corn meal and shake off the excess.
• When the butter is melted, place the coated trout, flesh side down, in the skillet.
• Fry 4-5 minutes, then turn and fry 4-5 minutes or until the flesh is golden brown and flaky. (Trout may be seasoned with garlic or onion powder before frying if desired, I also take a lemon with me to squeeze over the top).

PANFRIED TROUT WITH ALMONDS AND PARSLEY

Steps:

• Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Season fillets with 3/4 teaspoon salt, dividing evenly, and pepper. Gently place 2 fillets in skillet, skin side up. Reduce heat to medium, and cook until golden brown on one side, 4 to 5 minutes. Carefully flip fish, using two spatulas if necessary. Cook until slightly flaky in the center when pierced with a fork, about 2 minutes more. Transfer fish to a serving platter; keep in a warm spot. Wipe out skillet, and repeat with 1 teaspoon oil and remaining 2 fillets.
• Wipe out skillet again; add remaining 1 tablespoon oil and the almonds. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until almonds start to turn golden, about 1 minute. Remove from heat, and immediately add parsley and lemon zest; stir to combine. Stir in lemon juice; as soon as it starts to bubble, pour sauce over fish. Serve immediately.
