PAN-FRIED TROUT WITH ROSEMARY, LEMON AND CAPERS



Pan-Fried Trout With Rosemary, Lemon and Capers image

This 1994 recipe gets Provencal flavors on the table in minutes. Fresh rosemary needles are pressed into the fillets, which are seasoned in flour and pan fried for a crisp exterior and flaky inside. A sauce built on shallots, white wine and lemon adds complexity. Pair it with a light vegetable like sautéed asparagus, or a bright arugula salad, and serve with some of that white wine for an easy, refreshing spring dinner.

Freshly ground pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil

Using fresh lemons for the lemon juice and lemon zest will truly increase the fresh citrusy taste of the lemon-caper sauce.

Categories     Fish

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 trout fillets (about 2 pounds total)
1 tsp white pepper
1/2 tsp salt
2 Tbsp unsalted butter
1 Tbsp cooking oil
1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 Tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
1/2 tsp whole capers
1 large lemon, peeled and segments separated
1 tsp fresh lemon zest

Steps:

  • 1. Using a sharp knife, score 2 slits crosswise (about 1/4" deep and about 1 inch apart) into each trout fillet. Turn fillets over and season with salt and white pepper.
  • 2. Heat 1/2 Tbsp butter and all the cooking oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place fillets in skillet, skin side up, and sauté about 3 minutes or until browned. Turn the fillets and sauté another 2 minutes and the skin just starts to become crisp at the edges. Transfer cooked fillets to a platter and cover with foil to keep warm.
  • 3. Stir lemon juice into the skillet. Add the parsley, capers, lemon segments and lemon zest, and stir well until lemon chunks are heated through. Spoon the lemon-caper sauce over each fillet, and serve immediately while still hot.

Delicious, quick, easy and healthy! This would work for a dinner party or for every day and needs minimal preparation time and looking after. The sharpness of the lemon seems to complement the saltiness of the capers and anchovies well.

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 trout fillets (but would work with most fish)
3 tablespoons olive oil

1/2 cup rosemary

salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Mix the olive oil, capers and rosemary.
  • Put fish in an ovenproof dish.

  • Drain the anchovies of oil, slice in half and drape over the lemon slices.

  • Bake in oven at 200c for 20 minutes, or until fish is cooked.
  • I served this with rice flavoured with lemon juice and black pepper and a side dish of brocolli.
