Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 1-ounce packets plain instant oatmeal (about 1 1/3 cups)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 large egg
3/4 cup milk
4 strips thick-cut bacon, sliced
2 leeks, sliced into half-moons
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
4 5-ounce skinless trout fillets
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup red wine vinegar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Coarsely grind the oatmeal in a food processor. Transfer to a shallow dish and season with salt and pepper. Beat the egg and milk in another shallow dish.
  • Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate. Remove and reserve all but about 2 tablespoons drippings from the skillet. Add the leeks and garlic to the skillet and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the parsley, bacon, and salt and pepper to taste; keep warm.
  • Line a baking sheet with a double layer of paper towels. Dredge the trout in the oats, dip in the milk mixture and then in the oats again, turning to coat. Heat the reserved bacon drippings with the olive oil in another large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the trout in batches until golden on one side, about 3 minutes, then flip and fry until cooked through, about 2 more minutes. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and keep warm in the oven. Add the vinegar to the skillet and bring to a boil. Serve the trout with the leeks and drizzle with the vinegar dressing

Time 30m

Yield 2 servings

2 cups water
1/4 cup sherry vinegar
1/2 cup sliced spring onions
1/2 carrot, thinly sliced
1/2 celery rib, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Place the water, sherry vinegar, spring onion, carrot, celery, and thyme in a pot and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 10 minutes. Season the trout on the outside and in the belly with salt, pepper and a pinch of cayenne. Place in the simmering court bouillon and poach for 7 minutes, or until a skewer inserted in the thickest part of the flesh comes out warm.

Bring the court bouillon to a boil and add the butter slowly, 1 tablespoon at a time, whisking constantly. Continue whisking until all the butter is absorbed. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
  • To serve, place a trout on each plate and spoon the sauce over each. Serve immediately.

A super-simple whole baked fish with hot horseradish, zesty lemon and herbs - parsley, dill and thyme all work well

Provided by Barney Desmazery

Categories     Main course

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 whole rainbow trout , gutted and cleaned
1 tbsp olive oil
1 lemon , thinly sliced
sprigs of various herbs (parsley, thyme and dill would all work well)
fresh horseradish , grated, to serve (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Lay the trout over a lightly oiled baking tray and stuff the fish cavity with slices of lemon and herbs. Season generously all over and drizzle with the remaining oil.
  • Bake in the oven for 20 mins until the fish is cooked through - the eyes will have turned white and the flesh will be soft to touch. The trout can be served as they are with your favourite seasonal vegetables, but for an added extra touch, peel away the top layer of skin and grate over fresh horseradish before serving.
