Trout With Escarole Orange And Olives Recipes

MEDITERRANEAN PAN SEARED TROUT RECIPE WITH TZATZIKI

Steps:

• Mix the coriander, paprika, and garlic powder in a small mixing bowl.
• Pat the trout fillet dry. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper on both sides, then season with the spices on both sides.
• Coat the seasoned fish with the flour, shake off any excess flour (you only want a very thin layer).
• In a large cast iron skillet, heat about 3 to 4 tbsp olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering but not smoking (see note). Sear the trout fillets for 3 minutes on each side (start with skin-side down, and use a spatula to very carefully flip the fish fillets over).
• Remove the fish from the pan and place it on a tray lined with paper towel to absorb any excess oil.
• Transfer to serving platter and finish with a squeeze of fresh lime juice.

BRAISED ESCAROLE WITH OLIVES AND RAISINS

Steps:

• Heat a large straight-sided skillet over medium heat until hot. Add the oil, shallots, garlic and pepper flakes, if using, then season with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Stir with a wooden spoon until the shallots are soft and fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add the olives and raisins and stir to combine. Add the chopped escarole and season with the remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt. Stir to combine and coat the escarole in the flavors. Cover with the lid and allow to steam for 5 minutes. Remove the lid and increase the heat to medium-high. Cook, stirring often, until the liquid has evaporated and the greens are tender, another 3 minutes.

TROUT WITH ESCAROLE, ORANGE, AND OLIVES

Steps:

Add fillet to skillet, flesh side down, and cook until fish is golden brown and releases easily from skillet, about 5 minutes. Gently flip and cook until opaque throughout, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Add escarole, orange zest, and olives to skillet. Cook, stirring constantly, until escarole wilts, about 2 minutes. Add orange juice and toss to coat. Serve alongside trout.

• In a small skillet over high heat, cook lemon wedges until browned on all cut sides, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove, and set aside.
• Reduce heat to medium; melt butter until lightly brown with a nutty aroma, about 1 minute. Remove from heat. Add olives and capers; toss to coat. Immediately spoon sauce over fillets. Squeeze lemon wedges over top, and serve.
