Best Pan Fried Trout With Browned Butter And Almonds Recipes

PAN FRIED TROUT

Steps:

• Pat the filleted fish dry with paper towels. In a shallow pan, combine the flour, salt and pepper. Dredge the trout in the flour by pressing it down on both sides and shaking off the excess flour.
• Heat a large cast iron skillet or other nonstick pan over medium high heat and melt the butter in it. Add the olive oil, then when hot, lay the trout fillets skin side down in the pan and cook for 3-5 minutes. Carefully flip with a thin, wide spatula and cook on the other side for another 3-5 minutes until golden brown, nearly opaque and the fish flakes easily with a fork. Don't overcook the fish!
• Serve with lemon wedges for squeezing over the top of the pan fried trout.

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!

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.

PAN-FRIED TROUT WITH BROWNED BUTTER AND ALMONDS

Steps:

• I took the skin off the fish but if you would rather leave it on that's fine, just start the fish on the skin side when you begin to cook it. Cut the fish into palm sized pieces.
• After you have removed the skin, (and if you are not sure how to do that, there are probably good You tube videos to teach you how) sprinkle the fish on both sides with the Montreal chicken seasoning and let sit out for about 30 minutes as long as your kitchen is not too hot. If it is then keep it in the fridge.
• Lightly salt (the seasoning mix has salt)and pepper the fish and lightly dredge in flour. Bring your oil up to temp, it should be shimmering, but not smoking, and gently lay the fish in the pan. Cook for 4 or 6 minutes on each side. If the oil is hot enough the fish won't soak up too much oil. Put the cooked fish onto a paper towel lined cookie sheet and keep warm in the oven. Before you serve it take off the used paper towels and place on fresh ones. That helps get rid of some more of the oil.
• In another small pan put about half a stick of butter into the pan, and add the sliced almonds. Let the butter begin to brown, but be careful you don't burn the butter or the almonds.. watch very carefully. Throw in the herbs and serve over the fish.

PAN FRIED WHOLE TROUT

Steps:

• Remove gills from fish and discard. Rinse fish under cold water.
• In a large skillet heat oil over medium heat.
• In shallow dish, combine the flour, cornmeal, salt and pepper. Raise heat to high. Dredge fish in flour mixture and fry in hot oil for about 4 to 6 minutes on each side or until meat flakes with a fork. Serve garnished with lemon wedges.

TROUT WITH HARICOTS VERTS AND ALMONDS

Steps:

• To pan-dress the trout:
• With scissors, cut away the dorsal fin along the back of each fish. Hold each pectoral fin (the one closest to the head) and cut away and discard the gill plate and pectoral fin. Turn the fish on its back and open it up. Starting at the head, cut away the belly flap on each side, along with the pelvic fin. Remove the tail by cutting across the fish about an inch from the bottom of the tail. Set aside.
• For the haricots verts:
• Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Prepare an ice bath. Blanch the haricots verts in the boiling water for 2 to 6 minutes, or until they are barely tender, with a slight bite still left to them. Drain the beans and transfer to the ice bath to chill quickly, then drain again and dry on paper towels.
• To complete:
• Lightly sprinkle both sides of each trout with salt and pepper. If you have them, heat two 12-inch nonstick pans (special oval pans work best for fish) over medium-high heat. If you have only one pan, cook two trout first, cover, and keep them in a warm place while you cook the final two. Coat each pan with a light film of canola oil. Add the trout skin side down and sauté for about 4 minutes on one side only. The fish may still look undercooked at the top of the flesh, but the hot ingredients that will top them will complete the cooking.
• Meanwhile, put the beans in a sauté pan, add 2 tablespoons of the butter and 1/3 cup water, and place over medium heat. Heat, stirring occasionally, until the water has evaporated and the beans are hot and glazed with butter. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove the pan from the heat and keep warm.
• When the fish are done, cut off the heads and discard, if desired, and place the fish on serving plates. Drain the oil from one of the pans and return the pan to the heat. Add the remaining 8 tablespoons butter and a pinch of salt to the hot pan. When the butter begins to brown, add the almonds, shaking the pan to brown them evenly. When they are a rich golden brown, add the parsley and lemon juice.
• Meanwhile, cover each trout with one-quarter of the beans.
• Spoon the foaming butter and almonds over the haricots verts and around the edges of the plates.

PAN-FRIED TROUT WITH BACON, ALMONDS & BEETROOT

Steps:

• Heat 1 tsp of the olive oil with the butter in a large non-stick frying pan until it just starts to sizzle. Add the fish, skin-side down, and fry for 10-15 mins - basting often until the skin is crisp and the flesh has cooked through - then turn over for a min. Remove and keep warm.
• Add the remaining oil to the pan and tip in the bacon lardons and croutons. Fry for about 10 mins until crisp. Meanwhile, toast the flaked almonds in a dry pan over a medium heat. In a small bowl, whisk together the oil and vinegar for the dressing with some seasoning, then set aside. Toss the watercress, beetroot, lardons, croutons, almonds and dressing together in a large bowl. Sit a trout fillet on each plate and serve with the salad on the side.

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.

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.
